"I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God
who is sending a love letter to the world." ~Mother Teresa

Where is That?!

Pray:
Turks and Caicos Islands- in the Caribbean.  The islands have a history of drug trade and money laundering.  25% live below the poverty line.
Tuvalu- In the Pacific, east of Australia.  Only encompassing 24 km worth of coral atolls.  They are strongly Protestant and very traditional, but some of the traditions are challenged by outside society.  Pray for wisdom to preserve the nation and culture.

Proverbs 4:20-27
"Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life."  verse 23

Psalm 20
We must put our trust in God.  I cannot imagine how those who do not know him are able to function.  How do you live without hope?  "Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God."  verse 7

Matthew 15:29-16:12
Jesus feeds a large crowd again with a few loaves and fish.  I didn't realized the two occurrences were so close together.  He also warns the disciples about listening to the teaching of the Pharisees.

Genesis 48-49
Jacob (Israel) is giving blessings to his sons and grandsons.  After he blesses, he then tells them what to do with him once he dies.  Then, he basically lays down in bed and that's it.
