TLWS: Friday, Week Thirty-Five

 



Happy Friday and last day of March, Friends.  Is March going out like a lamb or a lion in your world?

What did you think about this week's reflection?  Did you like Maggie's story about the mouse?  It freaked me the freak out. LOL.  If you haven't read it yet, it's terrifyingly funny!

Any thoughts?  

Scripture from the lesson:




God is educating you; that’s why you must never drop out. He’s treating you as dear children. This trouble you’re in isn’t punishment; it’s training, the normal experience of children. Only irresponsible parents leave children to fend for themselves. Would you prefer an irresponsible God? We respect our own parents for training and not spoiling us, so why not embrace God’s training so we can truly live?

~Hebrews 12:7-9 (The Message)


Prayer Requests

  • From Rita: I must continue to ask prayer for various family members - the aged with chronic health issues, members with short-term health needs for healing, and for the grandbaby, whose necessary daycare is literally a petri dish for ongoing viruses. Lord, with your help I pray each one of my loved ones - and their caretakers - can cope and conquer these matters and enjoy a healthy, new season.
  • From Kitty:  We will be traveling to Houston next Wednesday for Kristen’s mom’s memorial service and please pray for safe travels and that all goes well. Thank you! Love and blessings to all. (Also continue to pray for family unity and her son's job search.)
  • From Carla:  Pray for Sam and the 157th.  Pray for all our military families.
  • From Rita: Please pray for the Nashville Christian school, where 3 children and 2 teachers were shot and killed this week - dear God, please comfort that community and protect them from evil. Please help us all realize how much we need You in our lives.
  • Carla asks for continued prayer for our military all around the world. For our leaders to make wise decisions and to not use our military for a 'war game'.  Also, pray for the power of TRUTH to reach the hearts of those hurting, lost, and confused.
  • Please pray for travel mercies for Trip and me. 



Until next time...

Blessings!
