CRIME: Changed Hearts Is the Solution

The solution to stopping crime? Changed hearts.

 The vehicle to hearts being changed? Followers of Christ sharing the Good News of Jesus.


Prayer Thoughts?

1. Pray for the Lord to change OUR hearts so that we will be willing to share the gospel with those who may get into trouble.....even BAD trouble. Jesus came and died for EVERY SOUL who has been born. EVERYONE no matter what we have done, deserves a chance to have heart change through Christ. Are you willing to step beyond your comfort zones and share the gift you have with others?

2. Pray for those who are incarcerated now...that someone will share that good news with them and they will have the healing power of Christ in their lives.
3. Pray for the Greater Montgomery area. Pray for residents to be wise as serpents but gentle as doves. Pray for those victims of crime(who understand God's grace) to share forgiveness and redemption to those who were the perpetrators.
4. Pray for our law enforcement officers to have wisdom and direction on what they CAN do to make our city safer but we don't need to put the whole responsibility on them! WE need to be wise stewards of our belongings and kind to our neighbors.
