Psalm 87:1-3
A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. A Song. On the holy mount stands the city he founded; the LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwelling places of Jacob. Glorious things of you are spoken, O city of God. Selah
Lord, I pray for those whom you have placed in my charge within the prison system, to nurture and equip, then to send into the cells, living units and yards to carry the message of Hope into dark places. Guide Betty and I in our teaching and equipping; give them strength and courage to live Your Word within the system; fill them with Your Word as the occasions arise to speak love, grace and mercy to those who have never known or experienced.
