Evening Prayers with Others

As we step into the weekend….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from JOHN chapter 21– as we consider some of the things that JESUS did….

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 Tibet, Los Angeles, Syria, Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Ukraine, Russia, Yemen, USA and other parts of our world in deep need at this time

We YIELD – say Yes – to His Kingdom ways for tomorrow
