Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.
Psalm 127:1>
At this time, when feelings run high, the world seems crazy, and anger seems to be the one thing the peoples of the world have in common, I invite you, my fellow FReepers, to join me in prayers and meditation for guidance, God's help and for our fellow man, for America, our troops, and all our own needs.
Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
That calls me from a world of care,
And bids me at my Father’s throne
Make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief,
My soul has often found relief
And oft escaped the tempter’s snare
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer!
William Bradbury
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear though the earth should change,
though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea;
though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble with its tumult.
Psalm 46: 1-3
Thank you so much for this. It is very touching. And thank you all for your prayers.
My prayers are with her.
That was beautiful--thanks for sharing!!
Very nice.
Act 1:3 To them he presented himself alive after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God.
Oh Lord, you do not hide from us, but show yourself to your people, that we may know your will and word.
1Ti 6:13 I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession,
1Ti 6:14 to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
1Ti 6:15 which he will display at the proper time--he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords,
1Ti 6:16 who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.
Your appearing, Lord, is where our hearts are fixed. Let us walk worthy.
2Ti 1:8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God,
2Ti 1:9 who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began,
2Ti 1:10 and which now has been manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel,
Your Works are mighty, and in them we rest, satisfied, contented, full of hope and assurance.
2Ti 4:1 I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:
2Ti 4:2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.
Help us to be at our Father's business.
2Ti 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.
Tit 2:11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people,
Tit 2:12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,
Tit 2:13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,
May your Name be lifted up, exalted, finding a throne in our hearts and in our families and country.
Amen.

Received from a friend...Please hold this young girl up in prayer
There is a 21 year old girl in my neighborhood that was in a horrid car accident Thursday night. Alcohol was involved. Police don't think she was driving though. At this point they think the who ever was diving bolted. She has a broken neck, chest injuries, broken vertabrae, collapsed lung. The hospital has her in a drug induced coma. Don't know if the injuries will let her be able to walk. She is in too much critical condition to even try to assess that. She is a troubled girl. Her younger sister is a friend of my daughters. Pray for her, will you? She never had the guidance she needed.
Mat 24:23 Then if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it.
Mat 24:24 For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.
Mat 24:25 See, I have told you beforehand.
Mat 24:26 So, if they say to you, 'Look, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out. If they say, 'Look, he is in the inner rooms,' do not believe it.
Mat 24:27 For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Mar 13:24 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light,
Mar 13:25 and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
Mar 13:26 And then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.
Lord, make us wise to know your word and remember it and keep a watch. I lift up my head. Surely our salvation draws near.
Holy Father,
Give us hearts ready and eager to receive the gift of Your Son, Jesus during this season when we contemplate His miraculous birth. May each of us make room for Him so that we may live lives that bring glory and honor to His Holy Name. Amen.
Amen
THAT IS SO AWESOME! Thank you so much for including me in this spreading of light and blessing in prayer, in reflection, in love. What a gift you've given us!
BTTT
Jam 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
Jam 1:18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
Father in heaven, thank you for another day, and Grace to live. You never change. Not your Mercy, not your Love, nor any thing. Your Truth is eternal. I ask that you would draw us near you today, as we draw near to you and Bless our way with greater Love and knowledge of you. Allow us, as we are determined, to be a light and salt testifying of Jesus.
Joh 17:3 And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

YW!! *If everyone lit just one little candle, what a bright world this would be.*
