Change My Heart, Oh God, for Montgomery's Sake!

"Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect". Romans 12:2 New Living Translation

As we live and work in the Greater Montgomery area, we are to be transformed by changing the way we think about............everything! Not an easy task to do for the average human but with God all things are possible, right?

Here are some prayer points this week for us to ponder.
1. Pray that the Lord will change our way of thinking about those we don't like very much.
2. Pray that the Lord will change our way of thinking of the poor and their circumstances.
3. Pray that the Lord will change our thinking about those of other cultures who are our neighbors and colleagues.
4. Pray that the Lord will change the way we see worship...not as a consumer, but as a participant in the Kingdom.
5. Pray that the Lord will change the way we think about our schools, yes, they are a mess but there IS good all around. We just have to look for it.
6. Pray that the Lord will change the way we think about crime......crime is a "symptom" of heart issues. Pray for change in the hearts of those who commit crimes.Is our heart changed? Can we be the testimony that someone might need to "see" for their own hearts to be changed?


What would happen if we all did that this week....."Lord change me...instead of Lord change them". Wonder how the Greater Montgomery area would look if that happen?  Let's try!! Are you on board? I am.
