Dear Praying Friends, On a recent Psalm 91 Daily Call, a special praying friend shared a testimony about how she felt “seen” by caring neighbors who had checked in on her. This made me start thinking about how we are always “seen” by God even when we feel isolated from people. It is good and comforting to know that we are ALWAYS under His watchful eye. So that inspires my prayer for this week. I invite you to join me:
SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD! HELP US TO THRIVE IN 2025 AND HELP US TO REMEMBER THAT YOU SEE US!
Prayer Pointer:Today, let this truth sink deep into your heart. God’s love is not dependent on our circumstances; it’s a steadfast promise, an unbreakable bond in Christ. It’s our source of strength, a foundation that doesn’t shift with the sands of time. -Our Daily Verse
Prayer Fuel: Lord, Your eyes are everywhere including on me. Help me to walk in a way that glorifies You today!(add your own prayers) SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD! HELP US TO THRIVE IN 2025 AND HELP US TO REMEMBER THAT YOU SEE US!

Dear Praying Friends, I write mostly to empty out what is in my heart. Today, Good Friday, my heart is heavy. There is snow on the ground here again and that makes life feel a bit challenging. But more than that, I think of the “heaviness” of this day. I remember when we were kids, Mom made us be “quiet” between the hours of 12noon and 3pm when it was said that Jesus died. Even though this is a “heavy” day, let’s not miss the significance of the heaviness that leads us to Resurrection Day on Sunday. Let’s keep praying for our world to have a true encounter with Jesus. Let’s keep praying that we, too, have a renewed encounter with Him.
Show Us Your Glory, Lord and meet with us in this Holy Week.
Lord, You were mocked and crucified for me. You could have come down from that brutal cross, but You chose to stay there for me. I am overwhelmed by Your love.(add your own prayers)
Show Us Your Glory, Lord and meet with us in this Holy Week.
