Prayers!

THe next couple of days i will be fasting waiting for God's answer as to whether or not I am going on the world race at this point in my life. Here are some things i am praying about. Please be in prayer for me if you can; it would definitely help.

Pray I would be encouraged in the word, that i would find depth and ever changing meaning and that i would see things simpler, and more clearly.

Pray God would continue to prepare me and ready me for whatever is to come, here in Portland or around the world.. I have so much growing to do. pray his word would be written on my heart and I would start learning to love people better here where it's easier and comfortable so i won't fall apart when it gets rough.

Pray for my family, that our time all together would be blessed. That my gma boeckle would recover from hip surgery quickly and my dad and brother would return home safe from traveling. Pray for Christian who can now enter burning houses- he's a fireman! Pray for my cousin tasha and her family- they have lots of trials going on at the present. Pray for my lovely gma jeanine and gpa; gma is experiencing some vertigo and gpa has something going on with eye fluid. Pray for Autumn as she finishes up summer classes and begins to start med-school, pray that we would have amazing time together and both have a peace about whatever God's plans are for us. I'm praying my family would continue to draw nearer to the Lord and that would bind us together.

Pray things at work would not get crazy. There are a lot of changes going on, and I want to be honest with them about my intentions of staying, and accepting new responsibility, etc. Help me to be a light at work and not just stay silent, because it is easiest.

Pray for our dearest friend Lena. She just came back from Africa, and is missing the people of Uganda terribly. Pray she would see what God has for her in this moment and all the blessings and preparation this new job at Good Sam is. Pray for the people of Uganda's safe keeping. Pray the bombings going on would stop, that their would be a huge movement of the holy spirit there and that people here and around the world would take notice not just in Uganda, but around the entire world and really care what's going on with ALL of God's people.
