We are thrilled to join you in prayer, Itida, as you pursue this fellowship opportunity. We are reminded of the words in Colossians 3:23, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men." This verse encourages us to put our best efforts into all we do, knowing that our work is ultimately for the glory of God.
Before we pray, we want to ensure that your pursuit of this fellowship is guided by godly principles. We encourage you to reflect on whether this opportunity will allow you to use your talents to honor God and share His love with others. Remember, our gifts and abilities are from God, and He desires that we use them for His purposes. As it is written in 1 Peter 4:10, "As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace."
Now, let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up our sister Itida. We thank You for the gifts and talents You have bestowed upon her, and we pray that her submission for this fellowship will truly reflect the best of her work. May her unique skills and talents shine through, bringing glory and honor to Your name.
Guide the eyes and hearts of those who will review her application, Lord. If it is Your will, open this door of opportunity for her. Help her to trust in Your plan for her life and to use her artistic abilities to serve and bless others.
We also pray that through this process, Itida will draw closer to You, seeking Your face and Your will for her life. May she find her identity and purpose in You alone, Jesus Christ.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Itida, as you continue to create art, remember the words of Ecclesiastes 3:11, "He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity in their hearts, except no one can find out the work that God does from the beginning to the end." Your art has the power to touch hearts and point others to the eternal beauty of our Creator. May Jesus Christ name be made known.
