| Prayer requests on the website are updated every Monday-Friday at 9:30 a.m., EST February 13, 2015 “For God is not unjust; He will not forget your work and the love you showed for His name when you served the saints--and you continue to serve them.” (Hebrews 6:10, HCSB) WORLD LEADER - “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence” (1 Timothy 2:1-2, NKJV). Please pray for President Thein Sein of Myanmar (between India and China). BEIJING, CHINA (BAY-jing) - Everyone wants to find love, and the Chinese are no different. Valentine’s Day has been adopted by many young Chinese, and this month will find many seeking that perfect relationship that will satisfy their longing, their desire for ‘true love.’ Most will be looking in the wrong places. They will be seeking what the movies and novels describe as love, what their peers say is love, and missing the truth of what love is all about. Pray for times of openness and conversation to share about the love of God during these days. Only a relationship with Jesus will truly satisfy the longings that so many feel. Pray that many will find out what true love is as they hear the message of a God who loves them and gave His only Son for the people of the world. “All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions--it is by grace you have been saved” (Ephesians 2:3-5, NIV). PHU THAI OF THAILAND (pooh tie) - Over a year ago, Sue’s* friend started sharing with her about the difference Jesus had made in her life. Sue was interested in hearing more and opened her home to have weekly chronological Bible storying sessions, inviting neighbors and relatives to hear the stories too. Recently Sue has started asking more questions about what it means to accept Jesus and what would happen if she died. Pray that the seeds planted will grow into a fruitful harvest and that Sue’s neighbors and relatives will also seek Jesus.
