Ashamed to Pray by Jennifer Slattery. Jennifer walks us through her day of truth – going from self-love to seeing how to act like Christ. Her prayer: Lord Jesus, help me to die to myself, not just in the big, courageous moments, but in those day-to-day encounters–standing in line at a grocery store or eating at a dirty restaurant. Help me, in all things, to be alert to my witness. Help me to radiate your sacrificial love–the love that drove you to a cross, for me.

CAST YOUR BURDEN ON CHRIST
Cast Your Burden on Christ by Jan Cox This morning two passages of Scripture struck deep into my heart. I had read from Philippians 1 and 1 Peter 4.

THE DREADED DIET
The Dreaded Diet Read: Philippians 4:10-13 “I rejoice greatly in the Lord that at last you have renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you have been concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it.
