Dear God--I just went through Father, Jesus, and Holy Spirit and decided to address all of You by saying "God"--I am aware that the charge of "hostile working environment" has knocked me off balance and has distracted me from the big issue of sharing You with Tue this weekend. I think often of the Screwtape Letters play that we just attended earlier this month, and I am grateful for the reminder that the Enemy can, and does, use such distractions to keep me from PRAYING!
Prayer: Please, God, do something awesome and miraculous for Tue's saving faith this weekend. Please soften his heart to ask deep questions, and perhaps more importantly, prepare my heart to share Your love clearly and boldly. Relatedly--please help GN to see the forest for the trees, so to speak. This is, of course, in large, large part our fighting for our daughter Julie; however, it is also in pretty large part fighting for Tue and his eternal life and relationship with You.
Can You (of course You *can*) or perhaps better said, will You help me understand the Buddhist faith? I want to know how to be respectful and aware of its importance to Tue.
Prayer 2: HWE? Really. I can't even. But help me to bounce and get back to business.
Maranatha, Lord Jesus. Soon. But not until we--You and I and GN--have a shot at Tue? :)
Amen!
