Prayer is a Gift

As this day comes to an end…did we thank God for all the opportunities? Were we able to find the strength to jump the hurdles and maneuver through the obstacles? Whatever our day was… it is most important to remember "this is the day the Lord has made and be glad in it”.

I spoke with a friend the other day who has some health issues…she carried her oxygen and walked ever so slow, but what was most extraordinary was the joy in her spirit and conversation.

She is maneuvering through her obstacles with a smile on her face and joy in her heart. She knows that God is walking with her and she has nothing to fear. She does what she can with what she has at this moment and allows our Lord to do the rest.

We are blessed with friends like this who shine for God no matter what the circumstance. Let’s remember to pray for those who are struggling with their health, finances or careers. The power of prayer is a gift we give to our friends and family.

2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 May our Lord Jesus Christ Him-self and God our Father, who loved us and by His grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.

Continue to be a blessing to those around you, be assiduous in your prayer life, be steadfast in your Bible studies and praise God with your love.

Smiles & Blessings,
Cynthia Collins Kaitfors
