I "hired" a youth group from a church that I don't go to (I know the leader) to do some yard work for me.

 

They wanted to help me for nothing, being that I'm a widow, but I insisted that I would pay towards their trip to Acquire the Fire.

 

They blessed me so much today, I cannot tell you .... they did a month's worth of work .... seriously .... God got the glory on both sides today.

Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that this extraordinary power may be from God and not from us. 

We are pressured in every way but not crushed; we are perplexed but not in despair; 

we are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed.

~2 Corinthians 4:7-9~

I've been praying for Candice and her family. They are in a deep deep valley. I rebuke Satan through Jesus name for any part he has in this and ask our sweet Lord for their healing. I pray that my words to her come from the Spirit and not from me. Please Lord I ask you to lift them up in Your Glory. Lord remember that Candice is your child and You will never leave her or forsake her, she is sealed in YOU.

Betsy, I will stand with you in this petition for Candace and her family. I don’t have to know the specifics because God knows. Two Scriptures came to me. 

 

Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me and I will answer thee and show thee great things and difficult which thou knowest not.

 

Psalm 23 The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.  He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside still waters.  He restoreth my soul: He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.  Yea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.   Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup runneth over. Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.           

 

Lord, grant them Your sweet mercy and wisdom for decisions. We call unto You, our Shepherd for peace, understanding and refreshing. We ask in Jesus’ name.

 

For Him,

Meema

Thank you Meema, I know He hears your prayers. Candice and I were just talking about Psalm 23 and how Jesus carries His rod and staff to protect us from the enemy not to beat us with. Scripture is such a comfort.
