“And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.” II John 1:6 (NASB)  Prayer Over Our Children Oh God, fill my child with mercy and grace that is born of Your truth and love. Bless her richly with love through the walking out of Your commandments. I pray that You will protect her from false teachings and keep her from running ahead of You. Oh Lord, ground her in sound doctrine so that she may ever dwell in the presence of You, the Father and the Son. Help her faithfully abide in You and remain steadfast in the truth so that she may receive her full reward. Make her joy in You complete, oh God, and surround her with Godly, encouraging, friends throughout the whole of her life. Love Your Neighbor

Everyday tasks and innocent interactions have been made joyful because of this love.

Crowded stores, empty shelves, and long lines greeted my husband today as he attempted to stock up our house.
“It’s so surreal.” He shook his head as he put away the few items he'd managed to procure. “I can’t believe it.” My heart sank. With paranoia nipping at my heels, I wondered how careful we indeed needed to be. A friend had just informed me that it had been recommended that all clothes should be stripped off the body and immediately washed after venturing outside, followed by a thorough shower for the person. Suggestions to wash all canned goods and leave plastic shopping bags outside the home also rang in my ears. Moreover, the unprecedented combination of cancelled schools, children at home, job layoffs, businesses closing, and church cancellations were enough to rattle my bones. ... |
