You’re Invited to #LightTheGoodNight

3

Dear friends, I want to personally invite you, your family, your friends, your churches, your neighborhoods, and your communities to join us for Light the Good Night, an opportunity to pray as one body for an end to Covid-19. 

At 7 pm CST on Good Friday (April 10), we will pray collectively from the safety of our own homes for lives to be spared and this disease to cease. As a symbol of our unified prayers, we will put a candle (or some light source) in our window.

What an encouragement it will be to see the night of Good Friday lit up with candles as a symbol of our collective prayers!

It is my hope that this spreads far and wide and results in thousands upon thousands of people praying in unity, but I can’t do it without you! I need your help in spreading the word! So please join us in sharing this event with your loved ones, your neighborhoods, your churches, and your communities. To share, simply post an invitation to social media and invite others to join you or even print out invitations and drop them mailboxes.

I have included a few shareable graphics for you to choose from in this post. Simply save the images and then share online or print.

If you would like to include a personal note for those not on social media or to hand out to specific people, I’ve included some suggested verbiage you can use to explain the event at the bottom of this post. Feel free to simply copy and paste. If there are other resources you may need, please let me know, and I will do my best to provide those. 

I also want to encourage you to make this event your own. It is not mine … it is simply something the spirit pressed on my heart. So if you have other ideas, please, by all means … run with them! 

I only ask that if you get a chance, please snap a pic and share it to social media with the hashtag #lightthegoodnight so we can all see those who are joining us in unified prayer! 

Are you with me? Let’s #lightthegoodnight and get ready to watch God move!

Sample verbiage for a letter or social media post. Feel free to copy and paste this or edit to make it your own:

Friends, as the threat of Covid-19 continues, I want to invite you to join us in praying for an end to this pandemic. And there’s no better day for unified prayer than Good Friday!

On Friday, April 10 at 7 pm CST, our family will take a moment to pray for an end to Covid-19. Would you join us? It’s easy; simply commit to praying for an end to the virus on this day, and then put a candle (or some kind of light source) in your window as a symbol! What a heartwarming treat it would be to drive around on the night of Good Friday and see the lights in the windows!

Please share with family and friends, and let’s all #lightthegoodnight!

Three years ago, my brothers and I with our famili Three years ago, my brothers and I with our families met at a vacation home to surprise our parents for their 70th birthdays. It’s still one of my favorite memories, and the older I get, the more I realize what a true gift it is to simply have everyone beneath one roof.

Don’t looks away. Don’t silence the headlines. Don Don’t looks away. Don’t silence the headlines. Don’t close your ears to the anguished cries of people created in the image of God.

Now more than ever, bring these people before the throne of God. Get on your knees and pray with fervor for the people of the Middle East. For their protections. For their freedoms. For their wholeness. For their salvation and their sanctification. 

Pray that the darkness would be banished and the light would dawn. Pray that the Gospel of Jesus Christ would go forth. That it would take root in hearts across the region and bear fruit. Pray that chains would drop, that slaves would be set free, that captives would be liberated. Pray that the goodness and the grace of Christ would saturate the hearts of people who are living in darkness. 

And do not tell me that prayers don’t work. Because ultimately the struggle in the Middle East is not against flesh and blood. It’s against “the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms”. (Ephesians 6:12) And the only way to fight a battle against the spiritual forces of evil is to get on our knees and fight it with the tools of spiritual warfare. 

(This isn’t a political post, and comments that seek to incite political hate one way or another will be deleted.)

For the one who feels like you don’t measure up … For the one who feels like you don’t measure up … at home, at school, at life, at work. Consider these three things, then set your mind on Christ.

1️⃣ Where am I finding my worth?

It’s easy to define our worth by the world’s standards … success, wealth, influence, intelligence. But these standards will always leave us empty because they rely on WHAT we are, not WHO we are. When we allow our worth to be defined by who we are as a child of God and a daughter of the king, it radically changes our understanding of our value.

2️⃣ What voices am I allowing to speak into my life? 

Are we constantly listening to voices of the world? Or are we seeking the truths of scripture and the life-giving affirmations of other believers?

3️⃣ Am I cultivating a heart of gratitude? 

It’s tempting to feel like we don’t measure up when we fail to cultivate gratitude for what we do have and for the intricate ways God has gifted us. When you start to feel the threat of comparison or inadequacies seeping in, combat it by thanking God for all he has so graciously gifted you!
