We know that people are suffering persecution for the name of Christ around the world. The apostle Paul suffered for the sake of the Gospel and encouraged us with these words:
For you did sympathize and suffer along with those who were imprisoned, and you bore cheerfully the plundering of your belongings and the confiscation of your property, in the knowledge and consciousness that you yourselves had a better and lasting possession.
Do not, therefore, fling away your fearless confidence, for it carries a great and glorious compensation of reward.
For you have need of steadfast patience and endurance, so that you may perform and fully accomplish the will of God, and thus receive and carry away [and enjoy to the full] what is promised.
Hebrews 10:34-36 Amplified

Lighthouse in the Storm
I listen to your prayers.
Whatever situation you are in,
Whisper My Name.
When your strength is gone,
I will lift you up in my strong arms.
I am your high tower,
Your lighthouse in the storm.
by Karen Rice
The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
The righteous run to it and are safe.
Proverbs 18:10

Whisper My Name.

I will lift you up in my strong arms.
I am your high tower,
Your lighthouse in the storm.

Mmmm...You smell good!
How are we known in Heaven? By our fragrance. Our simplest prayer is sweet incense rising before the very throne of God.
Let my prayer be accepted as sweet-smelling incense in your presence.
Psalm 141:2a God's Word

On the Wings of a Dove
I am praying for Christians in Nepal
who are ministering to the many orphans
and displaced families.
When troubles surround us,
who are ministering to the many orphans
and displaced families.
When troubles surround us,
when evils come
The body grows weak
The spirit grows numb
When these things beset us,
God doesn't forget us
He sends us His love
On the wings of a dove.
On the wings of a snow-white dove
He sends His pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove.

Garden in Bloom
For as the earth brings forth its bud, As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth, So the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
Isaiah 61:11
