Good Morning. I woke up at 4:30 am this morning….again! Now, I am a morning person and 5:00-5:30am is a welcome time for me😊. My warm, "Eggs Up Grill" coffee mug in hand, dark outside, mourning doves cuing, a warm light lit over the table, a quiet house and the Word before me….. Love it.
….But 4:30am is somehow not the same! I can't sleep. I am thinking of the things I need to get done when I wake up…. But I am awake now. Now, it could be that my insomnia is caused by my late afternoon double expressos… I am not sure.
But here I am- downstairs 4:30am. I am preparing for a Day of Prayer that I will be leading in Costa Rica next week for about 120 missionaries serving in Latin America and the Caribbean with EFCA ReachGlobal.
The Word brings peace to my heart and I begin to savor these moments… Lamentations 3:22-23 come to mind.
Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
23 They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
24 I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him."
25 The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;
26 it is good to wait quietly
for the salvation of the Lord.
Please Pray:
- I travel Wednesday night for a Leadership Forum in Costa Rica with City Team Leaders serving EFCA ReachGlobal in Latin America.
- Next week will be our biennial Latin American Conference including all missionaries and families serving in the Region.
- The Day of prayer will be on Thursday, August 9th. Please pray for the Father's Favor as our prayer team and I facilitate this day of prayer. We are praying for Oneness in Direction as a Region and a brokenness before the Lord that brings Refreshment and Renewal , Healing, Forgiveness and Freedom, Direction and Vision.
- Alessandra and Alyssia will stay in Rio while I am gone this period of 11 days. My in-laws will come and stay with them. Please pray for God's protective hand to cover them.
Delighting in Him,
Craig, Alessandra and Alyssia
