One Thousand Gifts: Monday, Week Eleven

 


Happy Monday, Friends!  Thank-you for your travel mercies prayers.  We had the best time at my fortieth high school reunion Friday night, and our niece's wedding Saturday night in Louisiana.  The flowers above are part of a centerpiece from her wedding.  The flowers were stunning, almost as beautiful as the bride!

We got home late yesterday, and I have yet to even look to see what this week's devotion is about.  I'm heartbroken over the news about the terrorist attack on Israel.  Please pray for her diligently this week!

I will be on track with the devotion on Friday.  As soon as this post is live, I'm off to make coffee and read it!




Prayer Requests

  • Pray for Kris's daughter Kim as she only has a few days until she gives birth to her first child.  Let's pray for an easy labor and delivery, and a healthy, happy mom and baby!  If the baby isn't born sooner, she will be induced on Tuesday (tomorrow, I think).
  • Pray that the division in our country ends, and that we can truly be one nation under God, and indivisible.
  • Let's continue to pray for our gold star families and our active military.  
  • Please pray for Kitty's DIL, Julie, that her heart will change; for SIL, Eric, that he will see some relief for his cervical dystonia; and for her son, Mike, that he will get a job.
  • Carla reminds us that it's not too early to pray for an honest election for all sides running, and that everyone that wants to run can have a fair go at it.
  • Please keep Rita's daughters in your prayers. They are both in graduate school and working full time (one being a full time momma), and are feeling a lot of stress currently.
  • Pray for Israel.
  • Pray for our country as we're experiencing an invasion on our Southern border.  We don't know who these fighting age men are as they have not been vetted.


Until next time...

Blessings!
Ricki Jill

  1. So glad your weekend was an enjoyable one.
    The news in Israel was obviously planned and deliberate. I just don't understand, so all I can do is pray.

    Kris, we can't wait for your bundle of joy to arrive!

  2. Good Morning sweet prayer warriors. My daughter had her sweet baby boy on Saturday. She had some rough moments with the birth but he is here and oh so cute. Mom and baby doing great. He is such a cute little peanut. Thank you for all the prayers. My prayers continue with all of you. Hugs. Kris
