Brothers and Sisters,

Tonight I would like to lift up some important people, though not by name. There are a few couples that have asked for prayer regarding adoption. Many of these couples are going through the "consideration period." Let us pray that the Lord will guide them to a decision that honors Him, and that they will be at peace with whatever that decision may be.

Other couples are in the "house visit period." Now, as you can imagine this time can be very stressful and nerve-racking. We should pray that the Lord would bless their efforts, and that He would remove all stress from this process.

Adoption is a wonderful way for Christian couples and families to reach out to the orphan. Not only providing food and shelter, but also God's love.

The Lord bless these couples and families.

In Jesus,
Rach

The North Dakota House of Representatives has passed HB 1572, which defines "person" to be any organism with the human genome. This bill has wonderful pro-life implications, so please rejoice in the Lord with me for this great victory. However, the battle isn't completely won: Please pray that the Senate would also pass this bill, that the Governor will sign, and especially that it would not get thrown out in court.

Praise the Lord for those willing to give up their time and money for the unborn!
We will be praying for this bill and we ask all readers to do the same.

In our gracious Lord Jesus Christ,
Petros

Romans 12:12 ~ Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

When you truly love someone, you want to build a deeper relationship with that person. Long walks and talks sound appealing and things like baking cookies help us bond stronger with that loved one. The point of prayer is to build a deeper relationship with Christ. Even though the Lord knows everything before we kneel as His Throne of Grace, prayer is a way to acknowledge our need of dependence on Him. God is sovereign no matter the situation, time, or place and through His Will, He answers our prayers. Not always the way we think is good or right but in a way that will bring us closer to Him. It also shows a reminder that it would be a disaster if we always did get what we asked for! His wisdom and perspective is far greater than ours we can take hope "for all things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His Purpose." (Romans 8:28)

I encourage you to rest in His Salvation and Grace! He is our strong tower and fortress in the day of trouble. Our Hope and Trust stands in His Unfailing Love. His works are wondrous and seeing them should cause us to want to fall on our knees and praise Him for His Goodness. He is sufficient for us and our strength. May this remind us of our hard hearts and our need for a Savior alone to the road of redemption.

We serve the Creator of the Universe! Come, let us praise His Name together...

Praising the Lord that loved me, a sinner needing His Grace alone for forgiveness,
Jessie
