March 5

Greetings: God bless you this day!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

Meg prayed one continual prayer as she and her

missionary partner waited for hours for a bus. The

over crowded bus smelled, the sun set and suddenly

fear gripped her. What were two young, white women

doing in the middle of Africa, at night, going to meet

strangers in a strange town?

The grease and dirt, she smelled reminded her of how

her dad's hands smelled, after work. A women walked by

and she smelled a whiff of lilac perfume, her mother's

favorite... then she knew with clarity, the same God that

watched over her parents in Nebraska, watched over her

in Africa. Fear left and a simple trust took over.

(Vantage Point Devotional)

SCRIPTURE

For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to

the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls 1 Peter 2:25

Do you feel overwhelmed by the things happening in your life?

Just remember... the same God that watched over Meg, watches

over you!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda
