Petitionary Prayer for Emily

It is nearing the end of April which means there are only two more opportunities to have Rebecca share our petitionary prayers on her Friday and Tuesday postings for this month. Today I am praying that God would provide a summer job for my daughter,Emily. It would be easy for me to slip into deciding what sort of job she should get and praying accordingly. You know what I mean. Sort of telling God what to do. Not that I can direct Him anyway and thank you very much for that! That would be overwhelmingly frightening! But right from the start, I am praying that He would work in her life this summer in ways that would be according to His will and would glorify Himself.
