It's the little things that count

“Know the love of Christ which passes knowledge."
Ephesians 3:19

To pay the debt of love, we can all do several things:
Mend a quarrel.…Replace a suspicion with a trust.
Remove any bitterness in your life.
Tell someone you know well how much he or she means to you.
Keep a promise.
Ask God to forgive someone who did something wrong to you, and forget the wrongdoing.
Don'’t be overly demanding on the other members of your family.
Express thanks to others throughout the day.
Pray for one of your enemies.
Send a check to someone who has a need.
Ask God to help you love the way Jesus loved.

*This is credited to John McArthur.

In the little things we do each day, we can make a difference in so many ways.

Today I am saying prayers of thanksgiving for my friends and family. The quote above was sent to me from a friend who means so much to me.
Her name is Sherri Martin. She could use as many prayers as you all can send up right now. She is fighting (and winning!) a battle with cancer. Her chemo has been doubled this week and she would treasure your prayers for strength and healing. Please add her to your prayers. She is a wonderful wife and mother & a fine example of the Proverbs 31 woman.

Thank you, my dear friends, for caring enough to pray for her. We all have needs. Send your prayer requests my way & we can all share God's love in prayer.
