Multiple Points Of Focus

Two areas of focus, on this Father's Day Sunday, as we pray for church effectiveness and efficiency....perhaps three, quickly.

With the thoughts and prayers for Charleston still fresh on our hearts and minds, pray that this would be a day that the body of Christ at large, comes together corporately, to support and uplift the families dealing with the aftermath. Pray for unity and that the message of Christ would ring loud and clear to those in the community seeking solace and understanding.

Secondly, pray for Fathers...for those leading their families, for those who have lost their families...for those struggling to keep their families together. I'll be the first to admit, I would do well to be more and learn more from my Heavenly Father. I would dare say that men much smarter and much more mature in their faith and walk with God would agree the same statement applies to their life.

Finally, I've seen many signs this past week for various Vacation Bible Schools programs this summer. A few have already started/happened. Our church's VBS is this week. Pray for final preparations to go smoothly. Pray for safety during this weeks events, again, especially in light of Charleston. Most importantly, pray for the relevancy of Gospel to come alive to kids and their families. It's a time of fun and games and friends, definitely; but a potential decision for Christ that could change the rest of their life and the course of history from now to eternity...that is a moment to be remembered. And covered in prayer.
