31 days of Prayer for China
Day 7
In June 2008, senior house church leader Zhang Mingxuan was detained for several hours – to prevent him from meeting with an EU official in Beijing. Officials closed down his orphanage early this year; Zhang’s family have been forced to move home more than ten times since Christmas. The government reportedly wants to move the family out of Beijing. Pray for strength and courage for Pastor Zhang, his family and four orphans living with them. Ask God to provide them with a permanent home.
Day 6
Thank God for the powerful witness of a house church in Beijing whose members’ homes were raided recently by officials. Despite their ill-treatment, Christians pronounced a blessing over officials and shook their hands after the raid. Pray that this powerful Christian witness will touch the hearts of these officers and open their eyes to their own brutality.

China does needs our prayers as well as the others you've mentioned in your posts.
Thank you for your comment on my recent post. The reference to PS 31 I thought was Psalms and as I read it tears flowed. You will have to read it. It truly was meant for me to read. After reading it I realized you meant Proverbs 31. I read that one as well. I truly feel humbled and Psalms 31 was like a message from God.
God bless you,
AliceE.
Debrah,
Don't feel bad, I do the same things that you mentioned. I'll be talking to someone and all of a sudden loose my train of thought and just have to stop. Usually the other person tells me something that reminds me of what I was talking about.
You are so right, God intended for me to read Psalms 31. I told my husband about it and he said haven't you read that before and I said yes but never like I read it today. It was like a light bulb went on, God has actually taken care of me all these years. I knew that in my head but never did it seem so real to me as it did today.
Thank you God for using this lady to speak to me.
You are truly a blessing,
AliceE.
Well, it looks like I'm the only one commenting on your blog today.
Feeds - I hope I can walk you through this. If you will look at the top of this page on the right there is a house and an orange icon (I don't know what else to call it). In that icon are the latest post that you have put on your blog. On the left at the top is an orange star and a plus sign and another star together. If you click on the big star you will see the words Favorites, Feeds and History. Click on Feeds then close. The Subscribe to Feeds is not a glitch. If you follow what it says, Create a folder name (like From The Heart) then it will ask for my web address
fromtheheartae.blogspot.com, then click on subscribe. Click on the Star and you should see From the Heart, click on that and you will see the orange icon and From the Heart. When you click on the Icon you will notice two green ,,(commas). When you are on my blog page click on the star and the follow the rest I just wrote, go over to the green comas and click on them, that updates the feeds and takes you to the person's latest post. You probably don't really need this since you have the Blog List on your sidebar. I keep both because the Blog List was not available when I first started. Is this clear as mud? It's the best I can do. Try it so you will know what Feeds will do at least one time or whatever you decide.
If something isn't clear let me know.

If you decide to try the feeds I would suggest printing out what I wrote. It will be easier to follow that way.

Good Morning Debrah,
I'll be out a little while this morning, but will meet you over at Lynn's study.
Hope you had a nice, restful night!

Debrah,
Just stopped by to ask if you had tried the feeds?

Debrah,
Thank you so much for visiting my blog. I am so glad to hear the testimony about "Goona be worth it." God is sooo good and I love to hear how He speaks through His people to each one of us. Thanks for sharing! I actually heard about this song from Coffee Talk, John Paul Jackson's blog. Someone left a comment on his site and I looked up the song on youtube. It has very much ministered to me also.
Your prayers for China remind me to be praying for our world in general. I used to pray for other countries all the time when I was in Middle School and High School and I should get back to doing that.
Hope you have a great day!
Blessings,
Nicole
Debrah,
You can come talk to me anytime you want. I'm glad your playlist is working out.
AliceE.
Debrah,
