Just a quick note to wish you teachers and students a great first day of school! Delaney and Mary Kate, I love you so much and am praying for you both today! Kids of Grace family, I will miss being with you today!
Please pray for Ted. His flight from Germany to Kiev was cancelled. I can't get a hold of him but Viktor told me.
Love you all and am so appreciative of all the prayers and encouragement.
Happy 1st day of school Mary Kate and Delaney!!! Love you!
ReplyDeleteLisa,
ReplyDeleteI went to the First Day of School Prayer event for all of Virginia Beach today. It was awesome. Especially because I was feeling sad and lonely after everyone left this morning. I met a bunch of new friends. We prayed in small groups. I hadn't planned it but I felt prompted to pray by name for Delaney and Mary Kate. The verse I picked was Proverbs 18:10 "The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe." My specific prayer was "Jesus, let Delaney and Mary Kate's confidence not be in self but in You. May they call on You throughout the day, always mindful that You long to strengthen and help them".
I hope they had a great day. Jack said he talked to Delaney on the bus and it sounded like she had a good day. It made my heart smile.
I know it is so hard for you to be away today but God is at work. I may not have had the privlege of having your girls on my heart if you were home. And it allowed others (like Jack) to be thoughtful and loving. Love is showing up all over the place.
