From today’s QT:
Paul knew what it meant to be given another chance after past wrongs (Acts 9:26-28). He knew personally the transformation God can accomplish. Now he saw it in the life of Onesimus. The Lord can chisel His image on our flawed lives and make us beautiful and useful too. — Albert Lee
Christ takes each sin, each pain, each loss,
And by the power of His cross
Transforms our brokenness and shame
So that our lives exalt His name. —D. De Haan
zc’s prayer requests: for upcoming test on friday and sat. That he studies for right thing and does not feel too stressed out and worried about the syllabus
Yes Father Lord.. I’ve seen how you’ve sculpted and modeled each and every one of our lives.. how much all of us have been changed by Your love and Your sacrifice for us on the cross. How we grow in You to become better people.. and how we learn each day lord to live our lives to honour You and to glorify Your name. Lord I know i’m a sinner.. I know i’m essentially flawed by my sin despite Your perfect and beautiful creation lord.. I pray lord that you forgive all my flaws forgive every bad thought that has transpired in my mind.. every unkind thing, insensitive thing that I’ve done..and Lord I pray for your guidance to be upon me to transform me and make my life one that is beautiful and useful for You lord. Help me Lord to continue to stay focused as work piles on and the semester gets busy..Help me not to lose sight of my priorities and to maintain a good balance between serving You and spending personal time with You on top of studying hard to glorify Your name. Father Lord.. I’d like to lift up zhen chang into Your hands.. that Lord I pray you be with him..calm his anxious heart about the lack of a syllabus and a clear guideline as to what to study Lord. Father I pray that You let him remember that You are always in control and that You already have all Your plans set out for us and that all we have to do is to do our part and to wait for You to do Your work lord. Father I pray that you help him to reap the results of his hard work and that for his exams this friday and saturday..he will be able to recall whatever he has learnt and apply them in the period of time where he is tested lord. I pray that lord You be by his side and give him Your wisdom, peace and strength to tide him through this exam lord. Father I pray that with his heavy workload he continues to stay focused in You and continue to share a close personal relationship with You. Help him lord, to lift up his burdens to You in prayer just as I do so for him Lord. I’d just like to commit him, his burdens, and his exam this friday and sat into Your hands Lord..and Lord Father I give thanks for listening to my prayer…
I pray all this in Jesus’ most precious name
amen.
