Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.
Proverbs 4:23 ESV*********
Please join me this week in praying for the children of the world. Let's pray that they are spared from the coronavirus and that their physical and spiritual needs are met. Let's also pray for their mental and emotional health because we can't be sure how this situation is affecting them, and the long-term effects it may have. The isolation, seeing everyone wearing masks, being separated from people outside of the immediate family, etc. could surface later in life in their abilities to have relationships and to cope in certain situations. We just don't know. Pray for them in all of these areas. Pray for their salvation, especially the older children.
I'll post daily reminders on:
