A Time to Replenish

‘Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.’
(Psalm 119:105)

One of the most wonderful gifts I have ever received came when I was a teenager. I was taught
by our leaders the value of beginning each day by reading God’s word and praying to him.
What a blessing this has proved to be! The day begins with quietness, with listening to and speaking
with our heavenly Father. Furthermore, we know that the Lord’s people around the whole world
are also doing this. We know, too, that people are praying for us just as we are praying for them.
This is one of the beauties of Mothers Union world-wide. And, always,
the Lord Jesus and the Spirit are also praying for us.  Romans 8:26, 34

Question for thought:  Who do you pray for?

Father of All, we pray for our sisters in the Diocese of Yangon in Myanmar.
Thank you for their steadfastness over many years of political difficulties and for their enthusiasm
in studying the Bible. Bless their community support in many projects and may it be a way of
sharing your love. We also bring before you the Diocese of Wangaratta and for Canon Maryann Leonard.
May they continue to do the ‘good works you have prepared for them to walk in.’ Amen.
