My Thoughts


My Prayer

'Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.' Psalm 122:6

It seems this statement is applicable in every age, since the foundations of the city of Jerusalem were laid. It also alerts me to the global activity in which God calls me to be aware and active. My life can be monotonous and arduous just keeping up with the daily rigamarole. I can be very preoccupied without even lifting my eyes past my own two feet. But God, being God, is concerned with all creation and not just my corner of the world, and he asks me to be involved.

One day you too will have the opportunity to pray for peace on this earth, especially as it applies to the walls of Jerusalem and I pray you will not let such an opportunity pass. There will come a day when I will cease to dwell on this earth, meaning I can no longer interact in the creation of time and space as we know it. While I am here I strive to intercede for my 6 billion brothers and sisters living here with me. Especially those in: Uzbekistan, Mal Dives, France, China, Guatemala, Ecuador, Cuba, USA, Russia, and India.

Pray for your brothers and sister that tread this earth with you. You may be the only gateway through which heaven can pour out God's spirit into the hearts and lives of others.

Love,
Dad
