You can instantly shift into a massive influential role in the life of anybody you choose by simply praying for them with consistency, determination, and faithfulness.
Paul was faithful with Epaphras in Ephesus and people met Jesus thru Epaphras in Colossae. You can influence places you’ll never visit and people you’ll never meet thru being faithful in the place you are and with the people where you are.
The tragedy we are experiencing summons us to take seriously the things that are serious, and not to be caught up in those that matter less; to rediscover that life is of no use if not used to serve others. For life is measured by love.
In these holy days let us stand before the Crucified One and let us ask for the grace to live in order to serve. May we reach out to those who are suffering and those most in need. May we not be concerned about what we lack, but what good we can do for others.
Sisters, we’ve been warned that a most difficult week could be ahead with COVID-19. This is Holy Week. Let’s walk it with Jesus. 1st thing each day this week, get our faces in Scripture. Hear from God before news. Draw strength and hope. Intercede with faith. Weep and worship.
In these days of #Lent, we've been witnessing the persecution that Jesus underwent and how He was judged ferociously, even though He was innocent. Let us #PrayTogether today for all those persons who suffer due to an unjust sentence because of someone had it in for them.
I’ve learned that whining to the Lord is better than whining to others. In most cases others have little to do with straightening the matter out or straightening my heart out.
One of the great functions of fasting is not just to express the depth of our hunger for God to act, but to awaken a hunger that is not as deep as we wish.
My guess is that none of us hungers for God in this moment as deeply as we should. Join us.

I love my husband. Oh man, I love my children & my grandchildren. Way beyond words, I do. I love my friends & co-laborers in Christ so deeply. But the love story of my life has been with Jesus of Nazareth, whom I have never once seen & whose voice I’ve never once heard out loud.
The history of the word friend is traced back to the word for love. At some level, all friendship is rooted in love. As you grow in love, your friendships will benefit. Bear in mind, this just might mean you will have to be a better friend to yourself, loving yourself more fully.
Has the Book of James gone missing from the NT?
Pure religion, helping orphans and widows in their misfortune.
Shunning prejudice if we possess faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Not daring to dishonor the poor.
Showing our faith with our deeds.
Not slandering brothers & sisters.
