Prayer Letter January 2024
Dear Prayer Partners:
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
- Philippians 4:4–7
Paul encourages us all to go forward into the future knowing that God is with us and is taking care of all that could cause us to be anxious.
Minnie Louise Haskins preamble to her poem “God Knows” has the same thought—
“And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year:
“Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown”.
And he replied:
“Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God.
That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way”.
So I went forth, and finding the Hand of God, trod gladly into the night.”
As we in Ohfi go forward into 2024 we surrender the organization into the hands of God trusting in Him to lead us, to give us His wisdom and compassion, and to provide all that we will need to bless the children and families and communities we support.
Let us go into the year with confidence entrusting everything into God’s care.
For your part in this dear Prayer Partners we sincerely thank you.
