Today is the National Day of Prayer, and I hope that many people will be spending time praying for our country and the leaders that govern us. Also, today is Cinco de Mayo, the Mexican celebration that commemorates the temporary turning back of the French occupation at the Battle of Puebla in 1862, a celebration that signifies the Mexicans? determination to defend themselves. More recently, it has become celebration of Mexican culture, and a time each year that an increasing number of Americans can sample the Mexican fiesta.
It is our hope that in the midst of the celebration, each one of you will take the time to pray for our neighbors to the south. As you pray, ask that the Holy Spirit would be able to break down the Mexican resistance to the gospel, to allow them to open their eyes to the opportunity to have a relationship with God and the blessings that come when they make Jesus their Lord.

God, says, it is not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit. May we always depend on Him to do things that seem impossible to us. May he work His perfect will in your lives as you continue to seek Him. Our Savior desires that all men be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 12:2) and we know He desires for the Mexican people to be saved; may our prayers be heard by Him who is faithful. I praise God that he has kept you safe in all the driving and may His protection continue to be upon all of you.
In His Name.
Amen
