COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We are in the 2nd week of Advent. It is the week of Faith. The first week was the week of Hope. The perfect bible verse encompassing each of these concepts is Hebrews 10:23: “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.”
I also re-watched the movie “Wall Street” and enjoyed this quote from Hal Holbrook: Man looks into the abyss. There’s nothing staring back at him. At that moment, Man finds his character. And that is what keeps him out of the abyss.” How does Man find his character? Through Hope and Faith.
MOLESKIN:
Prayers for Dr. Feelgood’s mother in law and family as they determine the path forward after another diagnosis of a recurrent cancer. Also, prayers to uplift our kids and school staff (teachers, aides, etc) as the ongoing COVID crisis has pushed everybody to the limit.
