Day of prayer/fasting

Just a quick note this week. For those of you who read this in time, tomorrow (thursday the 22nd) many of us volunteers at the MIS childrens center along with others will be taking the day to fast and pray. There are many issues going on within the center at the moment which are very difficult, and we know that we cannot handle it on our own. We can see that this is much more spiritual than anything else and we NEED God to interfere if we want to see improvement. We must believe that God is in control and remember that He cares about each child here as well as each one of us. We MUST have faith and not doubt that our God can do anything - there is no measure with God. We pray that God will overcome this evil that resides at the center - we know that He is stronger than it and we have no reason to fear. Please pray for us as we go through this day of fasting and prayer. Pray for our stength physically as we will still be working as normal. Energy is very much needed in working with children. Pray for each of us spiritually, that God will work in our hearts and reveal to us what needs to be revealed. Pray for the leadership of the center - things are not being run as they should be. And if you happen to read this blog after thursday, please do continue to pray - we need the big guy helping us out. Also, do feel free to join us in our day of fasting and prayer as well. Thank you for your support and standing behind me and others as we serve here in Lesotho.
