God’s love, which is stronger than death, is causing me to continue walking the path of the mission the Lord has given me (John 6:1–15). “At that very time some Pharisees came and said to Him, ‘Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill You.’ He replied, ‘Go tell that fox, “I will keep driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach My goal.” In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem! Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.

When I think of our
families ...
1. I long for God's great grace and mercy.
2. I earnestly pray that God would bestow the grace
of salvation upon us.
3. I pray that God would humble all of our family
members, even through our pain, wounds, and suffering, and help us to look to
and depend on the Lord alone.
4. I pray that God would thoroughly break and
shatter each of us, softening our hearts.
5. I pray that God would expose our sins, helping
us to recognize, acknowledge, and confess them, and that we would seek
forgiveness through the precious blood of Jesus on the cross.
6. May God grant us the assurance of forgiveness,
and through the great grace and love that comes from knowing we have been
forgiven by God, may we also be able to forgive one another as God has forgiven
us.
7. I pray that God would protect and watch over our
children. Especially, I earnestly ask
that God would gently heal the hearts of our wounded children.
8. I pray that God would turn around the crisis in
our family and bestow grace upon us, so that we may deeply and widely
experience His great love and salvation.
9. I pray that God, who is the Lord, would govern
and rule over our family, protecting us from all evil forces and Satan, and
keeping us safe.
10. I pray that the Holy Spirit would bear more of
the fruit of God's divine love in us and use us as instruments of His love, so
that every member of our family may love one another with the Lord's love.
