Every morning the various groups within Source of Light gather for prayer and a quiet time to be with The Lord. Many of us have already had our own private quiet time, devotions, or scripture reading. But when we gather as Operations, Print Shop, MDS, Advanced Studies, Accounting, Field Department or Administration, we have time to pray for specific department needs, health concerns, missionary requests from overseas or within our North American branches.
Each Tuesday morning we meet as a larger group to pray for our foreign branches and on Wednesday we meet for Chapel and a time of worship and a message or presentation of some kind before we take our lunch break. Every gathering is a worshipful, prayerful time to thank God for all He has done for this Ministry for the past 60 plus years and seek His direction as we move forward to reach the world for Jesus Christ.
Prayer does work. We have seen many needs met, financial situations resolved and health concerns addressed. We have prayed when things go wrong and praised when things go right and in every case we know that God hears us and answers as He wills and often surprises us with the timing and the resolution. What peace I feel with the call on our lives and the work we have been led to do in His Name. As I've said many times, it may not always be easy, but it is always rewarding and worth the effort we expend each day. Work hard, enjoy life, and keep on praying. God is Good.
