1 Kings 9; 2 Chronicles 8; Psalm 136; Romans 5

home...I love LA but home ______....
Time w/daughter and hubs always good, not so much restful and the thing is I LOVE that I really do Love LA, I just love home more......
LA is edgy, risky, diverse, fast.....as much as I love going I love coming home all the more.....
love a taste tho and pray to live RISKY here......to seek out diversity.....quit seeking out my own comfort so relentlessly....and the thing I don't think I know that's what I do...it's so in me....and yet this constant prayer to live RISKY......

I love that my Grand will be multi -cultural....be raised around loving examples of so many different cultures....I do pray for Mom and baby to be YOUR lights....to in that diversity be a light, to remember all that she knows of You....to be grateful that where You have her is where she's always wanted to be...steeped in diversity and out of the norm...for her to THANK YOU for all of it, for knowing her heart so well....for knowing how discontent she would be in a life w/out challenge and change and risk.....please Abba help her to give her child in the midst of so much diversity a centeredness in YOU.........

So today Abba I pray......to listen....to tune into Your heartbeat here.....a listening to You...conversational prayer.....to hear You and respond lovingly....obediently.....immediately and lovingly....

'Your love endures forever'

I want to live risky Abba.....counterintuitively RISKY
