Your Love Will Overflow

I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding. (Philippians 1:9 NLT)

Today's meditation:
  • Praying for one another carries as much benefit for the ones who pray as it does for the ones being prayed for. 
Pray today:
  • For faculty and staff who begin Spring Semester workshops and meetings today, for innovation and collaboration to enhance learning and development in our students, 
  • For loving and constant intercessory prayer for one another, for spiritual insight and growth, for discernment in knowing what our students need and how to help them.
