Today I get to go to church and Sunday School! Also excited about revealing the W.I.N.G.S program and brochures to women of the church today!!!

DAILY PRAYERS:
Prayed for 65 members of my family.
Prayed for the Salvation Praying Group to increase to 12 by the end of the year.
Prayed for the Power Hour of Prayer Group to increase to 24 by the end of the year.
Prayed for church average attendance to continue to increase to 150 by the end of the year.
Prayed for 29 prayer warriors by name
Prayed for 40 church members by name
Prayed for the 50 on our list of the lost
Prayed forgiveness of any sin I may  have committed and I pray for wisdom & guidance

PRAISES AND BLESSINGS:
Yesterday there was an overwhelming response to making Sunshine Sacks for Judy. That always warms my heart when so many can love on somebody that might need it.
My thoughts yesterday was that now that I do not have Dick to shower with love, I find myself doing that more and more with others.

BIBLE READING:
1 Corinthians 7
This chapter talks of the directions for marriages. One verse that did stand out is 23 "You were bought with a price, do not become slaves of human masters." That can mean so many things, but today it means to me, do not love your spouse more than God.

BOOK READING:
"Listening for God" by Marilyn Hontz
Today's reading reminds that prayer is a two way communication. I must listen more. The example was like going to the doctor telling them what is wrong and then getting up to leave without getting the diagnosis or treatment. I can see that I have done way too much of that with God.

MY CALL TO ACTION TODAY:
JaKay put out a plea to have her friend Mary Ann acknowledged and greeted when she brings her to church - I must do that. Also, Pastor Sheridan wants to make sure Joyce who just started attending is embraced. I think I just need to be willing to greet others so they feel welcomed and loved in God's house.

Have a blessed day.
