On my Prayer List:
My friend who found out her soon to be ex husband was shaking her 2month old baby.. and when it came time to be released from the hospital was put in foster care until the dad could be proven to be no where around. This baby was born at 29 weeks and spent a long time in the nicu. My friend is really upset.. the baby is fine but they go to court monday to see if she can have her baby back.. PLEASE PRAY FOR HER!!!!

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7
