Acts 1

Well, I got to work a little early yesterday. About 30 minutes early. Even though I LOVE work so much, I didn't feel like going in that early. Luckily I had my Bible with me. So, I started to read Acts. The part that I felt God was speaking to me directly was Acts 1:14. I am sure that you know what verse I am talking about. It takes place after the disciples watched Jesus ascend back into heaven, and the angels say to them, "Why do you stand looking into heaven?"(Verse 11). So, they go back to the upper room and scripture tells us,

"All these with one accord were devoting themselves to prayer together with the women and Mary the Mother of Jesus, and his brothers."

"Devoting themselves" - I felt God tell me to really start devoting myself to prayer. I really don't do it enough. I need to pray for the church of England, not the denomination, the actual Body of Christ in England. I need to pray for support, so that I can be fruitful while I am in England. I also need to pray that stay focused at work, and that I am bold to talk to non-believers about what Christ has done.

"Prayer together" - This part I feel like God wants me to get a group of prayer supporters together to accomplish the above. I need your help to pray for England, my teammates, and me. Please help me pray.

Thank you again for reading, and taking your time to listen to what I feel is important. If you have any prayer requests, anything at all, e-mail me: J.Christerson@gmail.com or call me at 404.226.9605
