Hey friends. I wanted just to welcome you to pray every day on this first day of October,

and I wanted to have a little announcement prior to the normal episodes. This will be a little

bit longer than normal. But I just wanted to thank you so much for all of you who have

prayed for me and prayed for direction. I've received so much encouragement and things in the mail and

emails from you that this podcast is helping folks and bringing encouragement your way.

And so you may hear a few times in October because I've already recorded those episodes

where I ask for a prayer about

pray every day. But I have decided to continue to keep doing this every day for as long as I can.

So thank you for all of you who have prayed for me. Thank you for all of you who have encouraged

me. That really did help me make this decision,

and I am so humbled and grateful to have this opportunity to really pour into your lives,

to enrich both of us through Scripture, and it is a huge privilege. So I just wanted to give

that little announcement. In case you hear it in October, where I

ask for prayer for pray every day.

I have decided to continue on.

And I just wanted to let you know that before we got too far into the month.

So thanks again.

And thank you for all of you who have been an encouragement because it really mattered.

It completely changed everything for me. So thank you so much.

Hey everyone, it's Mary DeMuth and this is Pray Every Day, where I have the joy and privilege of praying you through the Bible verse by verse.

So happy to be here on this first day of October. In my hemisphere, it's fall, and I'm very happy about that. Okay, so today I'm continuing in the book

of Colossians. I'm going to read the whole chapter of Colossians chapter two in the World
