Father,
You are Great and Mighty. We stand in awe of Your power and righteousness. You love us when we don’t deserve love and You free us from destruction when we are worthy of nothing less. Thank You, Father. Thank You for making us a tiny part of Your perfect plan. Thank You for the call You’ve placed on our hearts. And thank You for those You’ve called to pray, give and serve alongside us for Your glory in Honduras. We lift up our praises to the One who makes all things possible. We love You!
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

DAY 39 – 40 Days of Prayer: Rest
Lord,
Thank You for the work with which You’ve entrusted us. We pray that You would remind us every day that we don’t labor alone. We pray that Your Spirit would fill us up each morning and give us encouragement and wisdom throughout the day as we go about the work You would have us accomplish. But we also pray for sweet, refreshing moments of calm. Help us to know when to push forward and when to rest in You, Father. Teach us to still our hearts and listen to Your voice. Give us comfort and peace in midst of chaos and frustration.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
