GRACE-FORGED FRIENDSHIP DAY!

In our culture there are days for everything, even food! 
January 12-Hot Tea Day. January 26-Peanut Brittle Day.
April 5-Caramel Day. 
June 10-Iced Tea Day. July 1-Pecan Pie Day.
October 28-Chocolate Day. 
Yesterday was National Lemon Meringue Pie Day.
You get the idea---or at least an idea of those I celebrate "in the flesh."

What about more significant days for believers???
Scotty asked, "When is "Grace-Forged Friendships Day?" 
EVERYDAY! 

It makes everyday "gospel-icious." (Cole Huffman) especially as we desire to age gracefully. 
"A gospel-posse." (Scotty)  Dynamic Duo. Terrific Trio. A Quad Squad.
Christians on the same side of the struggle. (Ellen)

Believers who have been there, i.e. experienced that, can offer deep understanding, like-minded prayers and comfort so one does not lose heart. (2 Corinthians 4:16) 
A Fellowship of Believers' Day......
.....grace-forged with hope-filled prayers.(Romans 15:13)

INTERCESSORY PRAYER

Heading back to prayer chair for friends--as NEEDS of others have been so great the last few weeks.
Many are surgeries & CANCER related---bone cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, but loss of a mother, loss of a grandchild, loss of hope for a return to the "norm" for caregivers as dementia steals the mind of their loved one. 

Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone--especially to those in the family of faith. (Galatians 6:10)

Friends Sam and Suzie traveled to Uganda to "do good" in Uganda, Lori went to Turkey, Michele went to Thailand, Crickett, Mary and Kellye to Nepal and JoAnn to inner city Memphis. All traveled to "do good" for others taking my prayers with them as they went.





Today, for me, "my doing good" only requires me to "travel" to my prayer chair. 
Intercessory Prayer. What a privilege both at home and abroad.
