Who has a request or praise to share today?
And it’s Wednesday, so don’t forget Gambia. 🙂
Mark 14:1-16
1 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.
2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.
3 And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.
4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.
7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.
8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.
9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.
11 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?
13 And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.
14 And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
15 And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.
16 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

Prayer for a sixteen year old who has gone to Convention with the children from the Academy. She is there as a companion to the only other girl going. That God would open her eyes to Him and to His plans for her.
Prayer for a fifteen year old (yes, Chas, that would be S) who has gone on a trip. He left yesterday with my brother to go to Los Angeles. They will be there until my brother is done helping our uncle. Meantime, S will be staying with my oldest son at times and with my cousin and her …ummm.. wife? girlfriend? I cannot keep up. He is nervous but all of the people he will be visiting are very nice so he will be fine. Pray that God will open his eyes to seeing others with compassion while staying true to the Truth.

A friend called today. She called yesterday and I told her to get herself to a domestic abuse shelter. She made the move and got there safely. She does not know Christ but she does know of Him. Prayer that this would lead her to Him and that she would stay away from such guys. She is a repeat offender in this area.
