Ask and Peace

As we enter day 6 of SOAR and day 2 of ministry the words ASK and PEACE have been rolling around in my head and the heads of the other members of the SOAR 2012 prayer team.

James 1:5 says, "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you."
2 Chronicles 7:14-15 says, "...if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place."
As we as a team prayed at Bethlehem Aboriginal Fellowship yesterday we prayed and asked that God would allow the little children of the North End to come to him not only this week through each SOAR VBS program, but in the weeks and years to come. So join us in asking, and trusting that God will answer!

The word Peace seems to be more for our participants and teams as they continue to walk out this week personally and as they minister as a team. Join us as we pray the words of John 14:27, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." (NIV) "
"I'm telling you these things while I'm still living with you. The Friend, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send at my request, will make everything plain to you. He will remind you of all the things I have told you. I'm leaving you well and whole. That's my parting gift to you. Peace. I don't leave you the way you're used to being left—feeling abandoned, bereft. So don't be upset. Don't be distraught." (The Message)

Thank you for partnering with the SOAR Community in this way!
