A sad but inspiring story. My great grandfather did not make it to the war as he died 20 days into his enlistment. Details are sparse.

Last Night, penny and I drove my heavily laden car over to my sister’s house for a yard Sale today.
She has a big grassy yard, and Penny spent the whole day romping about and rolling in the grass.
We had a lot of good stuff at the yard sale, but my sister’s house is on a side road and we didn’t have a lot of customers.
All totaled...maybe we each made about $100 today which doesn’t come close to all the work we did. Oh well, it was a beautiful day so I can’t complain.

The Perfect Prayer Partner
October 2, 2017
[Jesus] is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.
Romans 8:34
Few sounds are as beautiful as hearing someone who loves you praying for you. When you hear a friend pray for you with compassion and God-given insight, its a little like heaven touching earth.
How good it is to know that because of Gods kindness to us our prayers can also touch heaven. Sometimes when we pray we may struggle with words and feelings of inadequacy, but Jesus taught His followers that we should always pray and not give up (Luke 18:1). Gods Word shows us that one of the reasons we can do this is that Jesus Himself is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us (Rom. 8:34).
We never pray alone, because Jesus is praying for us. He hears us as we pray, and speaks to the Father on our behalf. We dont have to worry about the eloquence of our words, because no one understands us like Jesus. He helps us in every way, presenting our needs before God. He also knows when the answers we ask for would not be good for us, handling every request or concern with perfect wisdom and love.
Jesus is the perfect prayer partnerthe friend who intercedes for us with immeasurable kindness. His prayers for us are beautiful beyond words, and should encourage us to always pray with thankfulness.
Thank You, Lord Jesus, for interceding for me with love. Help me to love and serve You with my prayers today.
Visit us at ourdailybread.org/PrayerChangesThings
for more resources on prayer.
Theres no greater privilege than praying with Jesus.
From its opening affirmation to its closing declaration, Romans 8 is a powerhouse of encouragement for the follower of Christ. Todays devotional highlights the reminder that Jesus Himself intercedes for us as we pray (v. 34). But there is even more help for us. Verse 26 tells us, We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. Imaginethe Son and the Spirit help us as we pray. What great reassurance that gives!
Do you struggle with your prayers? Knowing that divine help is available encourages us to keep prayingeven when we arent sure how.

As a matter of fact, I am so exhausted that my hands are shaking.
I am going to bed.

The spot where Lt. Cushing died is the small stone marker. He was commanding a battery like the cannons shown here.
