Answer to Prayer
Spirituality is increasing. A high degree of secularization persists, but many thousands of non-religious and nominal Christians are discovering in the postmodern era a spiritual dimension that has been missing from their lives, and churches are growing as a result.

Challenge for Prayer
Uruguayan society has been characterized by secularism and hope in man for over 100 years. The Catholic Church espoused liberation theology and failed to attend to the spiritual needs of Uruguayans. Catholicism may lay claim to 55% of the population, but only 2.3% attend Mass. Most Catholics are, in practice, non-religious. Such godlessness has in turn led to some of the highest rates of depression, suicide, abortion and divorce in Latin America. Pray for the Lord, through His Church, to radically transform Uruguayan society for His glory.For an additional 7 Challenges for Prayer see Operation World book, CD-ROM, or DVD-ROM.

WERE IT NOT FOR GRACE by LARNELLE HARRIS with lyrics
This song warns us that apart from Gods grace, there is no redemption. No matter how much we try to be an upright person, we cannot totally avoid committing sin. Worst, we may be consumed by arrogance to believe that we are absolutely sinless person and the rest of the world is far from being saved. We are not God who is perfect. As humans, we all have flaws. And we cannot even save our own souls. Without GOD's grace that absolves all our sins, there will be no deliverance for us. This is actually the essence of the song by Larnelle Harris.

Psalm 101 (New International Version)
Psalm 101
Of David. A psalm.
1 I will sing of your love and justice; to you, O LORD, I will sing praise.
2 I will be careful to lead a blameless life— when will you come to me? I will walk in my house with blameless heart.
3 I will set before my eyes no vile thing. The deeds of faithless men I hate; they will not cling to me.
4 Men of perverse heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with evil.
5 Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, him will I put to silence; whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, him will I not endure.
6 My eyes will be on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me; he whose walk is blameless will minister to me.
7 No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence.
8 Every morning I will put to silence all the wicked in the land; I will cut off every evildoer from the city of the LORD.

His Love Endures Forever
Let God Be Praised...
Let's Sing along with David: His Love Endures forever and ever
Lyrics:
Give thank to the Lord for He is good -His Love endures forever
Give thanks to the God of gods -His Love endures forever
O, give thanks to the Lord of lords -His Love endures forever
Through Him alone Who does great works -His Love endures forever
By His understanding made the heavens -His Love endures forever
Who made the great and shining lights -His Love endures forever
The mighty sun to rule the day -His Love endures forever
And, the moon and the stars to rule at night -His Love endures forever
Chorus:
Hallelujah Ha-allelu The Lord Jehovah reigns
He is the same from age to age
His love will never change......
God.., Who let His children through the wilderness -His Love endures forever
And, struck down many mighty kings -His Love endures forever
And, gave to them an inheritance -His Love endures forever
the Promise Land for Israel -His Love endures forever
Chorus:
Hallelujah Ha-allelu The Lord Jehovah reigns
He is the same from age to age
His love will never change......
He remembered us in our lowest state -His Love endures forever
And, freed us from our enemies -His Love endures forever
to every creature He gives food -His Love endures forever
Give thanks to the God of heavens
chorus: -His Love endures forever -His Love endures forever -His Love endures forever
(ending)
For ever and ever
I will enter His gates
I will enter his gates with Thanksgiving in my heart
I will enter his courts with praise
I will say this is the day that the Lord had made
I will rejoice for he has made me glad
He has made me glad; He had made me glad,
I will rejoice for he had made me glad
He has made me glad; He had made me glad,
I will rejoice for he had made me glad
