"Would you pray for my sister?” the burly worker asked awkwardly. I eyed him suspiciously. Months earlier, muggy August heat intensified emotions in the pre-strike atmosphere of the assembly plant where I was working that summer. Managers drove production at a frenzied pace and union members resisted. During breaks, we were coached by union officials on slowing down our output. My faith and idealism got me in the doghouse because I didn’t think God would accept anything but my best effort. I naively tried to explain. My co-workers’ response was harassment, and this burly worker asking for prayer had been the ringleader. An undesirable task? I got the assignment. Off-color jokes had me as the star. |

7 -Audio-)

when someone they love is at risk. |

TEXTO SALMOS 89:1-4 Las misericordias de Jehová cantaré perpetuamente; De generación en generación haré notoria tu fidelidad con mi boca. Porque dije: Para siempre será edificada misericordia; En los cielos mismos afirmarás tu verdad. Hice pacto con mi escogido; Juré a David mi siervo, diciendo: Para siempre confirmaré tu descendencia, Y edificaré tu trono por todas las generaciones. Selah SALMOS 89:20-28 Hallé a David mi siervo; Lo ungí con mi santa unción. Mi mano estará siempre con él, Mi brazo también lo fortalecerá. No lo sorprenderá el enemigo, Ni hijo de iniquidad lo quebrantará; Sino que quebrantaré delante de él a sus enemigos, Y heriré a los que le aborrecen. Mi verdad y mi misericordia estarán con él, Y en mi nombre será exaltado su poder. Asimismo pondré su mano sobre el mar, Y sobre los ríos su diestra.
