As you may know, I am away on an Elder’s Retreat with our church’s leadership. We have a great time together and have spent all day praying, planning and seeking how God would particularly like us to move. We also have fun.
Here’s a video of a place we ate at last night, which was excellent:
This morning, we got rolling by working through this recent article entitled Progress In the Christian Life from the latest Life Action Revive Magazine. Two prayers, in particular, stood out to us as we began our journey today.
George Whitefield:
“God, give me a deep humility and a burning love, a well-guided zeal and a single eye, and then let men and devils do their worst!”
And a prayer at the end:
“O Lord Jesus, make me happy enough in you to avoid sin, and wise enough in you to avoid danger, that I may always do what is right in your sight. In your name I pray, amen.”
We have had a truly amazing day. Thanks for praying for us. We are humbled to be a part of God’s work and continue to praise Him as THE HOPE for our future.
