\"Lightning8_-_NOAA\"<\/a>A crack of thunder punctuated the patter of rain on the roof. I walked from my office to our conference room to look out on the darkened afternoon. I watched the wind whip rain, leaves and small branches through the air. Now and then, lightning blazed and thunder roared.<\/p>\n

It seemed fitting to observe the power of an afternoon thunderstorm that rolled in as I worked on the final draft of the study guide for the devotional, The Focus of Prayer.<\/em><\/p>\n

I have completed editing the devotional itself. Last week I wrote the first draft of the study guide, and after I went back through it this week, I passed that off for editing.<\/p>\n

I think I\u2019ll stop describing the process there. Suffice it to say that I made a two-page list of everything that needed to get done, and I\u2019m churning through it. Every so often, I remember something else to add to the list.<\/p>\n

I should also say that everything is on track for NTM to release the book and study guide in mid-June. Thank you for praying!<\/p>\n

The devotional ebook and the study guide will be free. The devotional takes a look not only at praying for yourself, but two areas of prayer that are often overlooked, and integrates them into a balance prayer. The daily study guide takes you deeper into related passages or concepts.<\/p>\n

Does that sound like something you\u2019ll want to use? Please let me know. I’d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
