Prayers for "Brian"
If the Lord leads you, "Brian" has a job interview today and I'm sure he would appreciate your prayers. It's at 11:00 and is a position that would be more convenient, would be a promotion, and is one that he would really love to have. He also knows alot of other qualified people that also put in for it. Please pray that he will be able to communicate effectively, not be stressed out during the interview, and that he will trust in the Lord for whatever the decision will be.
May God bless you today!

Thank you both so much! Y'all are such a blessing.
Praying and keeping my fingers crossed, too (you know, just incase...)!
Praying - 10:59 AM
K-T, you're making me cry!!! Thank you so much remembering. I honestly had tears well up when I read that.
God Bless You my friend.
sorry that i missed 11, but i really hope that it went well.
i'm a little over an hour past. still praying, in case he's still in there. any news from him?
AM: It's a bit late for this now, I suppose, but here's a passage from the devotional "Streams in the Desert" that I find encouraging.
"Dr. Payson, while still a young man, wrote to an elderly mother who was extremely worried and burdened
over the condition of her son. He wrote:
'You are worrying too much about him. Once you have prayed for him, as you have done, and committed him to God, you should not continue to be anxious. God's command, "Do not be anxious about anything" (Phil.
4:6), is unlimited, and so is the verse, "Cast *all* your anxiety on him" (1 Peter 5:7). If we truly have cast our burdens upon another, can they continue to pressure us? If we carry them with us from the throne of grace, it is obvious we have not left them there. In my own life, I test my prayers this way: after committing something to God, if I can come away, like Hannah did, with no more sadness, pain, or anxiety in my heart, I see it as proof that I have prayed the
prayer of faith. But if I pray and then still carry my burden, I conclude my faith was not exercised."
(p. 169)
Now, don't get me wrong. It's not that I never worry. But it really does work, in that the more I trust my problems to God, the less I worry about them.
God bless you and Brian!
Thank you, RR. What a wonderful reminder.
