Father,

We ask you for protection, guidance, wisdom and love to follow JC and Pastor Mike on their road trip to Guatemala. May Your will be done. May hearts be transformed by Your awesome power.

We lift up Randall and his family to You. You alone know how to meet every need, we trust You to break through with healing and comfort for the glory of Your Kingdom.

Thank You for loving moms the way You do. Would You please draw more moms into Your great big heart of Love. Grant them the ability to feel, hear and see You through the difficulties of life.

Father, I ask that You would set Your church ablaze to the reality of You. Let not one be content with just knowing about You, but burn with desperation inside each of us to KNOW you intimately. Burn away our false comforts, burn away our illusions, burn away our apathy, remove the scales from the eyes of Your body!

Forgive us, Father, for settling and being content with just looking good in comparison to others, help us to always remember that the standard is Christ! Help us to not look left or right but to only look to YOU! Give us gentle spirits full of love, truth, mercy, compassion, grace, humility and purity.

Thank You for loving us like You do! Help us to be more like You!
Amen
