The news reports have not changed. The violence in Mexico continues. The refugees of Cuidad Mier are still living in a shelter in Miguel Alemán, just as they were over a week ago.
Last week I shared about what is going on in the area just across the Mexican border from Roma, Texas (a community just outside McAllen) – you can link to those posts here and here. Last Friday I announced that on Tuesday, November 16, I am asking all who read my ramblings to consider fasting with me for Mexico. Tomorrow is the day.
One of the purposes of a fast is go without something as a means of reminding ourselves how dependent we are on God. There is no question that the situation along the border is beyond our control. We are utterly dependent on God to intervene.
Please join me in fasting and praying for our brothers and sisters along the border – particularly in the shelter in Miguel Alemán. Tomorrow I will give you specific things to pray for so check back in the morning. Today, please help me spread the word that tomorrow is a day to fast for Mexico.
Be blessed today!
