As we journey through this week….. with God – together – you may want to revisit today’s Daily Devotions from JOHN 14 verse 27 – as we consider TELLING OTHERS THE GOOD NEWS about Jesus through 2023.

We PAUSE with the Lord in prayer as the day closes

We REJOICE in the help and blessings He has given this particular Wednesday – 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 Ukraine, Afghanistan, Israel and other parts of our world in deep need at this time

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