Almighty God, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, come to my help and deliver me from this difficulty that besets me. I believe, Lord, that all trials of life are under Your care and that all things work for the good of those who love You. Take away from me fear, anxiety and distress. Help me to face and endure my difficulty with faith, courage and wisdom. Grant that this trial may bring me closer to You, for You are my rock and refuge, my comfort and hope, my delight and joy. I trust in Your love and compassion. Blessed is Your name. In Jesus' name. Amen.

A woman was once asked what she gained from praying. She replied…
“Prayer isn’t about what I gain, it’s about what I lose. In prayer I lose my pride, arrogance, greed, desire for sin, impatience, despair and discouragement. Prayer allows me to lose the things that get in the way of drawing closer to Him”

We can all talk about the failures of “the Church” in the West. But “the Church” is us. We are called to do the works of Jesus. No more pointing the finger at ministries and pastors. Jesus commissioned us, you and me, to do the work. Let’s just do it.

Arranged Marriages in India, Nepal, Bangladesh and South Asia. It is estimated that 80 percent of all marriages in South Asia are arranged by the bride and groom's parents. Many future spouses have never meet each other before they are introduced by their parents. Even so arranged marriages have a very high success rate.

@bethany This is the first I've heard of watching a particular movie as a way to show your support to the people of Ukraine. @sinbach

@sinbach Well, during the shutdowns and mask mandates, many of us felt as though we weren't treated as adults.

@Berrybunchfamily Amen. It is so moving to see Christians praying for countries not their own. I once saw a video of Christians in India holding flags of various countries and praying for each one. It brought tears to my eyes as I saw someone praying for my country (USA). I know these saints have many trials and needs of their own, but they were praying for us. It was truly moving. There is something powerful in praying for one another. I love when we can pray and then rejoice with one another for answered prayers!

@zephan Thank you for sharing. I'm part-way through listening to these.
