Celebrating our fellow brothers and sisters in the family of God:
We had Graduation Sunday yesterday; we honored those who are graduating from high school, college, or some form of school. As they stood on the stage, their future plans were read indicating what they would like to do next in their lives. I would love to impart to them some words of knowledge and experience.

Abba, I pray for our graduates that they will grow in their walk with You this summer. Walking close and in step with You is the only way to not only survive, but to thrive! Increase their faith, Lord, and show us how to help them in their walk with You. Amen.
In the Master's Hands
