Perfect Peace - Laura Story - with Lyrics
“Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, ‘Lord, what then has
happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us, and not to the world?’ Jesus answered and said to him, ‘If anyone
loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come
to him, and make Our abode with him. He
who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not
Mind, but the Father’s who sent Me.
“’These things I have spoken to you, while abiding with
you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring
to your remembrance all that I said to you.
“’Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as
the world gives, do I give to you. Let
not your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. You heard that I said to you, I go away, and
I will come to you.’ If you loved Me,
you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater
than I.’” John 14:22-28
As this week unfolds around the world, it is important to
keep in mind that nothing happens by accident or outside the will of our loving
and merciful God. His plans, sometimes
confusing, are always perfect. Let us find
peace by hiding in His loving hands, regardless of the storms of discord that
surge around us.
Take care, your servant and friend in Christ, Darlene (who
prays for you each morning).

NEW PRAYER REQUESTS
· USA –
Pray the Lord will demonstrate His power in unexpected and uniting ways during
these times of unrest and confusion.
Help hearts settle and rest in Him alone. Let the truth of God’s Word and ways overcome
the drive to destroy our founding, Bible-based values. For Christ-centre, Bible-based revival in the
USA and religious freedom for Christians wherever they may be.
· Bob –a
friend of my brother and sister-in-law who has just had a tragedy in his life. Pray the Lord uses these recent experiences
to help him realise his need for the Lord Jesus Christ.
·
Peyton
- eldest granddaughter of Jeff and Rachael.
Pray for this lovely woman of God as she goes off to college, that she
remains safe and strong in her beliefs and convictions and continues to
encourage many with her loving faithfulness to the Lord.
·
Tracey’s Mom –
home now. Her ability to think clearly
and care for herself is weakening. Pray
for a home health carer to be found and that her loved ones will make time to
help her through this time.
·
Tracey –
as she deals with the difficulties of her Mom growing less able to care for
herself. Pray Tracey will pace herself
and cherish every moment with her Mom.
·
Hans –
a dear friend in Germany, has stabilised.
His CT scan has shown no advancement of the cancer. He thanks you for your prayers and reports that
his left hand is also improving (it has been paralysed since this began). Please continuing to pray for his healthcare
providers, his patience and wisdom. Pray
he is surrounded by faithful and compassionate Christian friends who will
support him through this journey. Pray
for his Mom (age 83) is unwell herself, that their time together will be filled
with extraordinary good memories and lots of love.

USA President
Donald Trump – As Christians it
is our responsibility to pray for our leaders and trust that God has a plan for
the USA through this man. If you doubt
the importance of his appointment, just look at the baseless antagonism against
him. Surely Satan is NOT happy and means to thwart God’s plan. Pray someone helps President Trump and Melania understand the true meaning of a
personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Pray they will both have an insatiable hunger to read God’s Word for
themselves. Pray God sends a
Bible-Believing Christian to regularly disciple them in the Truth. Pray God shuts the mouths of the false
prophets who regularly circle around them.
Pray for those in full-time service
During this time, when the entire world is struggling to understand this new ‘plague’, it is critical for us to uphold our Christian leaders. They will be needed everywhere. Pray for their wisdom, safety, ingenuity, strength and for their families.
Pray for those with ongoing health concerns
Many of us have family, friends and loved ones who are fragile health wise. It is important to protect them in practical ways and most important we must pray even more for them that the Lord will have mercy on them during this challenging time.
