PRAYER Rx --- September 8
Dear Lord, September -- a new beginning -- in school, in college, in jobs, in programs and meetings; but Lord, in the midst of all these changes, help me not to forget You! Help me to still take time to count my blessings, and to seek Your direction for my life, lest I blunder and make wrong decisions. ... Remind me that it is in my busy-ness that I need You the most. Alert me to the needs of others in war-torn countries, and of those suffering from disasters, earthquakes, or droughts, abroad and in our own nation. ... As a committed Christian, I am called to be an intercessor. My prayers do count! Joined with those of many others, they can indeed change the world for the better. It's up to people like me, Christians, young people, parents and grandparents, isn't it, Lord? Help me to be faithful.
In Jesus' name I pray.
Amen.
