M2 Prayer Guide

As we seek the Lord together, remember that everything we have is a gift from Him. Our commitment is not motivated by guilt or by the expectation of receiving something in return, but by grateful obedience and a desire to participate in His Kingdom work. As you pray, ask Him to guide your heart and lead you to respond in faith, trusting Him with every good gift He has entrusted to you.
