has officially begun at the Thompson house. We are two days into GRANDS. I see signs in almost every room that they are here and that’s setting well with me — for a little while.  🙂 

They have an honor board for helpful deeds done without prompting and the entries are appearing at a steady pace.  If these two days are an indication this will be a great Summer.  Prayer works!!!!

I am late getting here for a Wednesday. Come to think of it I missed Monday and Tuesday, didn’t I? There may be more than a few days I miss this Summer – that does not mean I will not be thinking of you nor that I forget you in prayer.

A sober passage has been chosen for us perhaps for today and tomorrow. Not with any expectations of you succumbing to drunkenness or dissipation; however the worries of life come to even the least of us.

Luke 21: 34 “ Be on guard, so that your hearts will not be weighted down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day will not come on you suddenly like a trap;
35 for it will come upon all those who dwell on the face of all the earth.
36 But keep on the alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
via Luke 21 NASB – The Widow’s Gift – And He looked up – Bible Gateway.

Even so let not the Summer and altered schedules and activities hurry you into missing dedicated prayer times and the Study of ABBA’s Word. As demands increase, we will need the strength of prayer and the WORD to meet the sometime ‘grueling’ fun.

So let us keep alert as our days run together, praying and praising.

ABBA, thank You. Thank You. You are GREAT and AWESOME. I am encouraged and delighted and expectant of the Mighty Works You are doing in lives of people so dear.  And for each one who comes here to read and pray, I ask for an alertness and a determined heart to stay close, praising and praying and loving You; serving and ministering through all the days of Summer.  We bring our sick and afflicted asking that You heal them and for our Prodigals and I Waywards we entrust them to You and stand listening for Your instructions how we can help in JESUS name. I pray too for Israel for peace and a subduing of their enemies and for America  I ask for grace and space to repent. Thank You, ABBA. We love you. Amen and      .

We have the God-given Right to do right in this wrong World,
Praying (PFT)!
