WHERE THE LEAVES DANCE
Where the wind blows. Where the tree yields. Where the Spirit lives.

Pray for peace. Ask God to take away your anxieties. Ask Him to calm your heart. Then, pray for your spouse and children, lifting them up earnestly before the Creator.

Ask God, fervently, to blanket your family with peace. Enter into His presence. He’s listening. Pour out your heart. Make petitions known to our Heavenly Father.

Pray for your friends—that God would give them peace. Have they asked you to remember them in prayer? Pray that God would help them with their specific requests.

In prayer, remember the town and state you live in. Ask peace to be present in governing discussions. Plead for peace for our nation. We don't want to be like the nations described in Psalm 2 that take a stand against God and his Anointed One. Those verses tell us God laughs at them.

Why do the nations rage
 and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth take their
stand and the rulers gather together against the LORD
and against his Anointed One.
“Let us break their chains,” they say, “and throw
off their fetters.”
The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
The LORD scoffs at them. Then he rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
“I have installed my King on Zion, my holy hill.”
Psalm 2:1-6

The Anointed One is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is the King of Kings and has been installed by God, the Creator of all we see. Jesus, the Prince of Peace, gives peace to those who believe.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
"May those who love you be secure."
Psalm 122:6

Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.
Matthew 5:9

Praying Peacemakers will sit by the river described in Revelation 22. They will sit under the yielding tree of life. The leaves of that tree are for the healing of nations. No longer will there be any curse. 

Blessings to you from my neck of the woods!
If you want to be where the leaves dance, pray…and with JOY!
