I say to the LORD, You are my God; give ear to the voice of my pleas for mercy, O LORD! (7) O LORD, my Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered my head in the day of battle. (8) Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked; do not further their evil plot, or they will be exalted! Selah
Lord, are we being sucked into the devil's maelstrom, was the entreaty to us a bonbon filled with the poison of the Evil One drawing us away from our calling to minister to the least, lonely and lost? Or is it a continued opening of the door of opportunity to bring the message of Your grace to our ward and her family?
Protect us and guide us in this endeavor.
