PRAYER REFLECTION FOR THE WEEK
Be not Dismayed
Remember, life will go on, even if it doesn’t go according to your plan. Don’t wait until you lose a loved one or have a heart attack before you discover that. Your worth comes from God, his opinion of you never changes.
For Further Reflection:
Philippians 4:6
