12 days of prayer: Day 9

Today we pray for health and safety.

We are going to be traveling a lot. Airplane. Cars. Who knows - maybe a train as well. I pray God will place a hedge of protection around us as we make our way to our child(ren).
We're also going to be in a country where we will stand out by the way we talk, the way we dress, the way we carry ourselves. We will be obvious 'tourists' which can be dangerous in some instances. I pray God will keep us safe, and help us to blend in & assimilate as much as possible, for safety reasons.

I also pray for our health. Traveling to a different country means exposure to different germs, different environmental factors, etc. I pray God will give us good health, and keep us from any illnesses. I pray the same for our child(ren). I pray that our entrance into their environment will not cause them any illness, and that their arrival into America will not be too difficult on their immune system.

Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.
1 Peter 5:7


4 Days and Counting!!!
