Prayer for Today, Wednesday, November 20

O Divine Presence,

 

We are blessed beyond measure. We are comfortable with adequate food, warmth, and shelter. As we watch the weather forecast we are concerned for those who lack these basic necessities. Open our eyes, our hearts, and our wallets, Dear God. We pray for the mission of Our Daily Bread, the Day Center for the Homeless, the Salvation Army, and Hope Outreach. Use them and use us, O God, to be agents for good. This is our prayer in Jesus’ name. AMEN.

I received the following email from Charlie and Judy Heller: “Prayers answered!! Our niece, Nicole Fisher, gave birth to twin boys Tues. afternoon at the neo-natal clinic in Dallas.  The boys, Brayden - 13 1/3 in and 1lb 13 oz, Brennan -12 1/2 in and 1 lb. 14 oz., are holding their own and breathing on their own.  Now, we really need the prayers to continue, as the next couple of months will be critical. Nicole and husband, Bob, are doing ok, also.  Thanks again for the many prayers.”
