Ramadan

I'm feeling heavy this morning. And burdened. August 11th begins the first day of Ramadan where many of the 1.7 billion Muslims world-wide fast during the day, stuff themselves with food at night, and pray earnestly so as to have their sins forgiven and obtain mercy from God.

1.7 billion without hope
1.7 billion who have awoken today not knowing that God’s mercies are new every morning
1.7 billion who are stumbling around in darkness
1.7 billion who are striving by works of the law
1.7 billion separated from true life which is found only in Christ

There’s a great prayer guide at this link to spur us on to remembering Muslims during this time of intense spiritual seeking: http://www.30-days.net/

Please pray.
