As we journey through Lent – with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from ROMANS 1 verse 7 – as we consider the Good News of Jesus
We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer
We REJOICE in the blessings He has given this Sunday
We ASK for His presence, peace and strength – for ourselves and for others in our world at this time
We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow
