Overflow

And may the Lord make your love for one another and for all people grow and overflow, just as our love for you overflows. (1 Thessalonians 3:12 NLT)

Today's meditation:

• Love starts at home and in the family of God until it overflows on those around us, upon friends and strangers, upon those who support us and those who oppose, upon those with means and those with nothing. 

Pray today:

• For the love of God to overflow our team in the field now in Costa Rica, for souls to be saved, for the needy to be served, for the work of their hands and hearts to succeed.
• For the love of God to overflow our team of employees, for our love for one another to grow, for our care for one another to expand, for students this summer and fall to encounter the love of God through the love of our people.

Our prayers make a difference in our outcomes. Please continue to pray over the list below that focuses on key needs at Emmanuel College.
