The first one today is Ephesians 5:8--
"For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light."
We know that light is the opposite of darkness. It looks different from darkness. As "children of light" we should look different and stand out from the darkness around us.
I have a few prayer requests to share today also.
~ First May is brain tumor awareness month. I participate in a program called Audrey's Umbrella. We send cheer mail to children and adults battling brain tumors. A little friend named Anderson has been on my heart the past few days. His MRI this week showed significant changes in his tumor. Pray for Anderson and his family as well as the many others that are fighting brain tumors.
~ A praise....I previously mentioned Harlan, who nearly lost his foot in a farming accident back in February. He is recovering and doing well.
~ I made a huge mistake Friday afternoon....at least it feels huge to me! I accidentally deleted a message on our answering machine that was for my husband. I heard part of it and knew what it was about. I pray that we will be able to get in touch with the office Monday and find out more what the call was about (and that it is the good news we think it is).
~ Next Sunday is Mother's Day. Remember this week to pray for all those who have lost their mothers this year and also say a prayer for Mom's who have children that have gone to heaven this year.
Thank you for visiting for Spiritual Sundays. I am glad you stopped by.
Have a day of blessings!

Joining you in prayer my friend, love you.
That is so sweet of you to think of others and offer them up in prayer. I am praying with you!
May all these people find light in the dark corners of their lives.
Love the verse! I agree that it is very sweet of you to think and pray for others during this upcoming Mother's Day time. That's something we all should do.
Beautiful post Bethany! Joing you in prayer for all these and I hope you get the phone call thing worked out! Dont' you just hate when that happens ;)
Have a blessed Lords Day
Thanks for the prayer requests and for the information about answered prayers.

Thank you for the reminder about May being Brain Cancer awareness month.
Please put Clayton back on your prayer list. (6-yr-old w/brain cancer). His recent tests
are showing no cancer remaining, but the effects of the chemo and radiation are taking a terrible toll on his fragile little body. He's had a very rough week!
(For more info, go to my blog, & click on 'Clayton's Journal").
Hope your lost phone message is found out & that all is great!
Blessings, Susan
me too...joining in prayer also. And Light for me...means so much b/c I lived in darkness...extreme darkness...and then amazingly...He turned on His Light...Sarah
Another beautiful post.
Joining you in prayer. And so thankful for His light and that we no longer have to live in darkness. :)

I just found your blog! I think it is wonderful how you are helping people suffering with brain tumors. Is that organization open to other families helping??
Great post! Would our family be able to help the organization??
I was not aware that May was brain tumor month. Thank-you for this great information. I'm looking forward to your verses this month on light.
Blessings,
Ginger
