Evening Prayer with Others
As we step into the weekend….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from PROVERBS chapter 12 verse 26 – as we continue to pause in Proverbs and Psalms this Summer time….
We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes….
We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Friday – to us and to others
We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our church family and our nation and in our world at this time – especially prayerfully supporting the people of Israel, Gaza, Ukraine, Russia, Yemen and other parts of our world in deep need at this time
