PLEASE PRAY for all those who think that they are not good enough – who compare themselves to others and are worried about who they are and what they have. Help them to know that they are loved unconditionally as they are and that God has a plan for everyone. Help those who despair to find you Lord, so you can bring them hope and light.

READ THE GOOD NEWS – Matthew 17: 1-9 – Be still, for the glory of the Lord is shining all around. How awesome is the sight.
