The following is a prayer letter that Barclay Smith wrote. He asked me to include it on the blog as part of the Amplify entries. Thank you for your entry Barclay. It was encouraging to receive the words of another believer on this trip.
Dear Lord,
I truly am speechless. This week has been nothing but a week filled with you. I came here with so much on my shoulders and somehow, I know by Your grace, has been laid at Your feet.
This week has been exactly what I needed. I came here with pride, and I will leave with humility. I came here in a valley and will leave having climbed to the top of a mountain. Thank you Lord that we, as young men and women, have come to serve the community, the people, and Your chosen people here in Port St. Joes, FL.
Thank you as always for the opportunity as in my training through men’s fraternity, a Bible ministry, to reject passivity, lead courageously, accept responsibility, master my emotions, and ultimately expect a greater reward, God’s reward, your reward Lord.
In your holy and precious name, I pray Lord Jesus (Trustworthy King), Amen.
In Love through Christ,
Barclay Smith
Ps. This goes out to all men. The last sentence of my letter to the Lord is the definition of authentic manhood. The call to manhood, a Biblican man is hard at times, but always, always rewarding. I love you men, and God bless you all.
