Prayer of the Week
In the journey of life, we often find ourselves on paths that are both smooth and challenging. Each road we traverse reveals different aspects of God's character, teaching us about His unwavering love and faithfulness. As we encounter trials and tribulations, it's vital to remember that our worth in His eyes isn’t contingent on our circumstances. Romans 8:38-39 reminds us that nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. This assurance gives us the strength to navigate the uncertainties we face, knowing that His love remains constant even when we struggle with doubt.
​
As we walk through the darker moments, we can trust that God provides a way forward. 1 Corinthians 10:13 encourages us that He will not allow us to be tempted beyond our ability to bear it, always offering a path to endurance. In this spirit, let us come before the Lord in prayer, seeking His wisdom and guidance as we step into the freedom and purpose He has designed for each of us.
​
PRAYER
Lord, thank You for the easy paths and, yes, even the hard ones. Both roads teach me aspects of who You are and how fiercely You love me. Help me remember that Your love for me isn't conditional, and Your faith in me is constant—even when I doubt. As I navigate the dark places in my life, remind me that You always provide a way out. Grant me the wisdom to recognize Your guidance and the strength to follow it. Continue to lead me closer and closer to who You are, so I may walk in the freedom and purpose You’ve prepared for me. Amen.

What Is Prayer?
Prayer is a powerful thing. It can bring a sense of peace like nothing else can do. That’s why Paul wrote these words of encouragement to the church in Philippi:
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with
thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends
all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
(Philippians 4:6-7)
​
I’m not sure if you know this, but Paul wrote the letter to the Philippians while he was in prison. The conditions in the jail cell were most definitely horrid. It is even possible that Paul was placed in the stocks with his feet stuck in wooden holes making it impossible to move about. It was also likely that he was beaten while in prison and fed a meager amount of food just once a day.
Still, amid all this hardship, Paul wrote these words: "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!" (vs. 4)
Who among you could possibly say such wonderful words of praise and prayer in these awful jail conditions? Yet Paul found the peace that only comes thru the love of Christ and in trusting that God would care for him.
​
Try lifting up a prayer. Nothing fancy, just try talking to the Lord like you would a friend. Thank and praise God for the joys in your life. Offer up the struggles you are experiencing. Ask God for guidance and peace. Try this every day for one week and notice the transformation that will come over you. Then stretch it into two weeks, then more. Prayer is a powerful thing!

Tell us about it by offering a prayer above. God hears ALL our prayers!
