DECISIONS, DECISIONS, DECISIONS

So many decisions. With potentially long-lasting implications.

Most of the time, however, it’s not a major life change we’re staring at; rather, our days are filled with small everyday choices. None of which may seem crucial at the moment. But every small choice we make leads us to the next choice available.

So whether a decision is big or small, wisdom is always desired.

And the one place we can always turn to for wisdom is God’s Word.

In Psalm 119, we’re told that God’s Word is a lamp unto our feet. We may not know everything that lies ahead, but we can know which direction to take because His Word lights our path. And when God’s Word lights our path, we can trust the direction we’re moving in.

"For the Lord gives wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding."
Proverbs 2:6

 PRAYING FOR OUR BROTHERS & SISTERS

Health, Wisdom, Strength

And pray in the spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. 

With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. Ephesians 6:18

MISSIONS UPDATE:
Evangeline Byrnes St.Clair, our very own precious sister and missionary to the Philippines, has sent an update on her time at New Life UTAP Bible Church in Tacloban. 

"We appreciate God's and your faithfulness. We are thanking Jesus for the joy we experience and with the new believer's lives. His blessings are upon us, with you.  In His wisdom we have inner strength to continue sharing His love and the Holy Spirit is equipping us."  

Please keep Evangeline in your prayers, she needs continued health, financial support and strength to endure long, hard days. They are continuing to feed the hungry, do prison ministry, children and women's ministries and rebuild the compound after the 2013 typhoon destroyed so much.   

"I can do all things through him who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13
