Happy Monday, Friends!
What did you do over the weekend? Have you decorated for Christmas yet? I am behind in my Christmas preparations!
This week's devotion is entitled "praying grace." Here's the scripture:
Prayer Requests
- Praise: Kitty's Granddaughter Avery chose to be baptized over the weekend. She is so proud of her. (She’s the 16 year old daughter of son Tim and DIL, Julie.)
- 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. Let's also be bold in asking God for more godly men and women willing to serve in government.
- 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 our country as we're experiencing an invasion on our Southern border. We don't know who these fighting age men; they have not been vetted.
- Pray for peace.
- Pray that God will place hedges of protection around all family members of every reader of this blog.
- Please pray for our neighbor David who is grieving right now.
- Trip will be traveling for training this week. Please pray for travel mercies and understanding of all the material he will be learning.
Have a wonderful week, Friends!
Until next time...
Blessings!

Happy Friday Morning, Friends! How's your week so far? We've been enjoying listening to the rain and drinking hot tea this morning. I am so thankful for the rain because we are experiencing drought conditions, and our governor signed a no outdoor fires declaration yesterday, so the timing of the rain couldn't be any more perfect.
What did you think about this week's devotion? Entitled "naming grace," Ann understands and conveys the power of language: God created the universe through language, and the way she points out how naming things and blessings actually blesses God is breathtaking. Thoughts?
This week's scripture:
Prayer Requests

Happy Monday, Friends! Thank-you so much for being prayer warriors with me. We're getting into the holiday season with Thanksgiving, Advent, Christmas, and New Year's Day.
I am so unprepared. But that's okay, isn't it! I'm trying to focus on the important and let everything else fall by the wayside.
This week's devotion is entitled "naming grace," and the scripture gives us a hint:
Prayer Requests
- 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. Let's also be bold in asking God for more godly men and women willing to serve in government.
- 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.
- Also, Rita asks that you pray special birthday blessings for her sister: Her birthday is today!
- Pray for our country as we're experiencing an invasion on our Southern border. We don't know who these fighting age men; they have not been vetted.
- Pray for peace.
- Pray that God will place hedges of protection around all family members of every reader of this blog.
- Please pray for our neighbor David who is grieving right now.
Now go make some coffee (or tea), read you devo, pray, and have a very blessed week!
I love you all!!!
Until next time...
Blessings!

Happy November, Friends! What have you been up to this week? What did you think about our devotion? I appreciate that the Apostle Paul stressed how he had to learn to be content in Philippians 4, that it wasn't something that just happened once he believed in Christ.
Here's the scripture from the lesson:
Ann shares with us her determination to "crack the code" of the language of eucharisteo, and she believes that her daily stream of consciousness and child-like thankfulness is the beginning of a "full of grace" language learning process. She stated it much more articulately than I did, but you get the gist.
