"The book of Ruth is filled with sweeping drama. It begins with a famine, and we meet a widow, Naomi, who has lost everyone she holds dear. But Naomi is not left alone, and we witness selfless acts of love that restore her spirit. Through the entire book, we see God’s lovingkindness toward His people. And the end points forward to our Savior who will introduce the greatest love story of all.
No matter what you are facing today, let Ruth’s story draw you in, assuring you that God sees you and your situation. He cares for you. And we know that He can do the impossible, bringing good things out of difficult circumstances" - Jamie Janosz.
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the Cross. We thank You that we do not have to wonder if we are Yours, for Your Spirit bears witness with our spirit. Produce in us a harvest of righteousness. Let our lives be so full of love, joy, and peace that the world knows we have been with Jesus. May our gratitude today transform our worship and steady our spirits.
We lift up our dear Jen, Lindsey, Alison, Lisa, Halleen, Joan and Laurik in our prayers to you today and everyday. You know their need for strength and your peace. We pray that Cindy receives peace and stays hopeful during her upcoming battle with cancer. Give her courage, hope and your peace. But above all they need to know you are with them. Let them feel your presence today.
We pray for Williams SIL who is in the late stages of Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease. Pray that God will heal her and give her a normal lifespan. We pray for baby Barrett. He is in the hospital with Covid. We pray for the mammograms of Beth and Diane and that they are normal.
May this Easter bring:
Rest that restores. Peace that settles the soul. Joy that rises from gratitude. Faith that grows deeper. Light that guides every step.
In the name of the One who gave it all.
Amen
Please join us every week in our Sabbath Prayer for the week. We request your support in adopting prayer points for people mentioned, in your own prayers this week and become vessels of His healing.
