More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb."

Devotion & Prayer Time

Boo patiently (or not) waiting for Mommy to finished taking pictures so we can have Bible story time! This is our favorite time of the night as a family!
And afterward we have family prayer time! We always ask Princess and Boo who or what they want to pray for.

Some of the things on their list lately have been:
*Jim S ~ going through cancer treatments
*Mark & Teresa G
*Grandpa & Grandma
*Emie & Owen
*Help Mommy & Daddy
*AG & EE to know Jesus
These are all requests J & myself have talked about together, and our precious little ones pay attention and request to pray for them too!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now a little story:
On the way down to Rapid on Friday we were listening to our favorite radio station and our good friend came on to promote his business and of course the kids recognized his voice. We had talked about how he had a rough day at work the day before and they decided that we should pray for Mark to have a better day! These are things they do on their own, without prompting of Mommy and Daddy!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One more little story:
Last week we were playing outside on the deck and all of a sudden Princess and Boo are on their knees with their hands folded. I asked them what they were up to and AG responded with "we're praying Emie & Owen!" So I told them they could carry on, they got a little embarrassed and asked me to pray so we did...the 4 of us just took a moment and prayed that God would bring Emie and or Owen into our family!
