Thank you, Lord….
● for the change of seasons

● that even though we might face many troubles, You come to the rescue each time. Psalm 34:19
● for restful nights and joy-filled mornings
● for the nourishment of the Bread of eternal life that we find in Jesus
Have your way in us, Lord, even as we fight to control each aspect of our lives, guide us to be more like Jesus….
● lead us to diligently keep planting and watering, looking expectantly towards harvest time, where many souls will be reaped for Your glory. Direct our steps and efforts to make the most impact for You
● may we partner with others to bring the gospel to unreached people groups
● as we share our cares and search for answers to life’s questions with You, help us to discern what is in your will for us
● when we are tempted to say more than we should, including hurtful chatter, prompt us to keep quiet unless our words uplift and glorify you.
● may we seek You first and experience the blessings that are added to our lives
We pray for brothers and sisters not only at CCC but also outside our walls, asking that God’s good and perfect will be accomplished even though we might not understand the process or outcome….
● for those mourning the loss of loved ones
● for wisdom and strength for parents seeking to nurture their children in Christ
● for humble and softened hearts for seekers to receive God’s word and teaching even as surrounding culture tries to distract them

● for those under financial, relational, or spiritual pressure to find peace and guidance from Jesus
