Prayer by Chaplain Washington:
Heavenly Father,
The things You spoke through the prophet Haggai, to convict the hearts of Your
people, sound like warnings You might be making today to the hearts of Your Heart-
land people.
Help us to not lose focus as they did. Help us to keep You and Your concerns as
our number one priority. You said that Your House was in ruins while each of them
was busy with their own house.
You said that because of this . . .
. . . they planted much, yet harvested little. The earth withheld its crops.
. . . they ate and drank but couldn't get enough.
. . . they put wages in their pockets, but it was like they had holes in them.
. . . they expected much but it turned out to be little.
. . . what they did bring home, You blew away.
Lord, we want the work of the Kansas House to be pleasing in Your sight, that it may
be productive and lasting. When history records the efforts of these men and women,
let it show that they made the affairs of Your House theirs, and that You made theirs
Yours.
Precious Lord of the Harvest, I come to You in the Name of the Christ. Amen.
