Small world connected by prayer

Jodie where is Russell?

 After a brief interruption of our weekly meetings, our small group reconnected last night. We met for dinner, fellowship, and prayer. It has been weeks since we have met as a group.  As soon as we met... it was as if time melted away.  As always, our evening was filled with laughter.    

Laughter …and prayer…and prayer

Not everyone in our small was able to attend. Russell was at home ~ sick.  Rita is in Japan.  She is visiting in Japan to help with her new grandbaby.  Maurice shared that he had talked with her last evening.  She is visiting south of Tokyo.

 As our evening ended, we prayed.   We join others in  praying for the people in Japan.  I pray others will trust and have faith in the Lord God Almighty ~ The Creator of heaven and earth....pray

Tonight, I am reminded of one of my favorite scriptures from the Message translation of  Psalm 46: 1 ~ 3

1-3 God is a safe place to hide; ready to help when we need him.

   We stand fearless at the cliff-edge of doom,

      Courageous in sea storm and earthquake

   Before the rush and roar of oceans,

      The tremors that shift mountains.

Our gracious hosts the Jacksons
the wife... my prayer partner...
