Ramadan has begun

We received an email today from a friend who does business in a country where it is a given that everyone will fast during Ramadan. Even those who are excused from fasting due to one of the accepted excuses (ie pregnancy) are pressured to join the fast.

Please pray for our friend, that God would be her wise counselor and protector, giving her insight and discernment at how to conduct her life, business and sharing during this season of heightened spiritual seeking. Pray for those who have heard the good news, that it would be food for their souls and they would turn to you for more. Pray for those who might be considering who Jesus is. Pray for those whose families do not understand them, and that whole families would come to know and receive God's forgiveness and love.

Amen!
