Over the past few days I have had several discussions about how to respond to the current health crisis, mostly with moms who have young children. “Is it wrong to be fearful? I feel foolish for feeling this way!” is what I am hearing most from these moms. My answer to them? No. It is not wrong to be fearful. It is normal.
But as Christians, what do we do with our fear? Even though it is a normal human response, how do we keep from allowing fear to control us?
We look to the Word of God, soak ourselves in His perspective, and cling to His promises.
After my conversations with these precious moms, I felt led to write some things to pray, supported by God’s word, that might help us all to focus on God’s promises while we do the practical things necessary to protect ourselves and those we love from this crisis.
To get your list of things to pray when the world is in a health crisis simply click here and enter your name and email address.

Hi there!
I was just reading about the PJJ and I was wondering what time the devotional will take place. I didn’t see a specific time or maybe I missed it because I’m tired, lol!
If you could let me know the time of day you would be meeting at, that would be great!
Thank you!
Jen
Hey Jen, thanks for asking! We haven’t worked out those exact details yet, but my guess is that the discussion posts for each day will go live in the morning (EST). We will be going live in the group 1-2 times a week as well, and those will probably take place during the lunch hour (EST). All that said, everything will be there in the FB group when you’re ready for it, whether you get to participate live or not. Hope this helps!
It will an awesome month of Joy
I’m excited about this prayer club, however I no longer am on fb. That’s one of those vices the Lord has called me to let go of and I’ve been fb free since October 31, 2021 and have no intentions of returning. I know this is a fb ran group, but I’m wondering if you will be sending info via email as well? I’ve also thought about hosting my own prayer club here at my home for close friends and family so I will be connected with others that way and I know we can all use it here locally. I actually found you on the you version app. And did your 5 day devotional when i was very sick for the whole month of January and it’s what pulled me through. Thank you for sharing this JOY with us.
Hey Spring! I think this is a GREAT idea, and you’re not the only person who has decided to host a prayer club in their own home. I’m going to try to pull together some ideas for those who want to do that and post them here on the blog within the next week or so. Watch for it please!
Hi !! I would love to be part of the prayer group but unfortunately I am not on Facebook . Will it be available in any other place? I love the book❤️❤️ I also did the Bible app devotional loved it 🙏🏻❤️❤️
Not right now, Ana, and I apologize. I know some people hate FB, but it continues to be one of the best places to create online community. If this changes in the future, we’ll make an announcement!
So am I understanding that we cannot participate unless we are on Fb? If that is the case then I will not be able to participate…please let me know as I would love to be involved. Thank you
For right now, that’s correct. Facebook remains the best way we can create community where we can grow together and get to know each other. This Prayer Club is just that…a club. It isn’t meant to be done individually. We hope you’ll join us sometimes in the future!
