Living Near to the Lord

In the winter, we appreciate the Builders who pray for, provide for and promote Greenhouse and its mission.

Throughout February, we invite you to pray especially for the Greenhouse teachers, whose roles are central to our mission. (We have listed them by name at the foot of the email.) We pray that they may walk humbly with the Lord, and love Him whole-heartedly. We pray that they will skillfully teach the students in their care, and invite their students into the joy and wonder of learning in a supportive community. We pray that they will be eager and diligent fellow-learners alongside their students. We pray they will winsomely shepherd students’ hearts in tandem with parents and in collaboration with the Holy Spirit.

More broadly, we encourage you to recall David’s words in Psalm 145.

Psalm 145:18-19 (ESV)

The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.

He fulfills the desire of those who fear him; he also hears their cry and saves them.

What are the cries of your heart during this season? Pray them out believing that the Lord hears and saves. What are the desires of your heart for yourself, your family, and Greenhouse? Name your desires in His presence, knowing He is near and trusting His Word is true.
