A Prayer Request

My friends I have a serious prayer request. One of my nieces has strayed from the faith of her parents.  She has engaged a group of friends and become part of their group, and through them has embraced Wicca.  She has moved out of her parent’s house and moved in with her latest “boyfriend”.  I give these details only so that those who will pray know what to pray for and is done with permission. Please pray for her parents to have the wisdom, patience, and love to deal with this.  I ask that you pray that my niece’s eyes are opened to the truth of her situation.

As a side note this is part of my crusade.  My niece is where she is because of the prevailing attitudes of our churches today.  Because my niece has minor autistic tendencies people in the church tended to ostracize her because they did not understand her.  Rather than loving her for who she is.  It is a crime in my eyes that those involved in the pagan practices Wicca are more loving and accepting of my niece’s differences than those that claim to follow Yeshua.

You have my prayers. You also have my understanding and empathy. It does seem like the church is self centered instead of Christ centered now days. I think that comes from being in purpose driven churches or churches who only minister to themselves and not the community in which they are planted.

Please pray for my son. Please pray that only positive energy surrounds the final process for his police application. Please pray that all the criteria the force is looking for is met and that my son is contacted and asked to join their force. This is so important to him. God Bless and thank you for your prayers.
