{ I said a prayer for you today }

   For some reason I got this little prayer on my mind last night and thought I'd share it with y'all today.  

I cross stitched this for Pappy back in the day when I could still see to do things like that.

Ephesians 6:13-18

(The Message)

Be prepared. 

You’re up against far more than you can handle on your own. 

Take all the help you can get, 

every weapon God has issued, 

so that when it’s all over but the shouting you’ll still be on your feet. 

Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and salvation are more than words. 

Learn how to apply them. 

You’ll need them throughout your life. 

God’s Word is an indispensable weapon. 

In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing warfare. 

Pray hard and long. 

Pray for your brothers and sisters. 

Keep your eyes open. 

Keep each other’s spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out.

Happy Thursday!

Breathing in Grace,
