And this is my prayer, that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best any may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes though Jesus Christ- to the glory and praise of God. -Philippians 1:9-11
The word for knowledge used here in Greek is Epinosis (not sure about the spelling). But this refers to the kind of knowledge that comes from experience and helps you discern what to do next.
We learned this from church Sunday Night with Pastor Perry. Tony and I were very inspired by it and would love to have prayers to gain Epinosis as we begin working with Night Light.
Today was out first day and we are excited to get to know the women and learn more about NL. We are doing well so far but my (Megan) foot is hurting a bit. Nothing big but prayer for that to go away would be appreciated. Thank you all so much :)

Our prayers are with you -
"For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge (epignosis) of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding so that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge (epignosis) of God." Colossians
1:9; 1:10
I'm also praying for the foot pain to be gone!

Hello precious ones. We think about you every day and wonder what it's like to be there.
A word about knowledge - I believe that knowledge is what you hold in your brain like a big filing cabinet. You put it there when you study subjects, have experiences and watch life in general. The knowledge won't do you a bit of good however, unless you retreive it from the filing cabinet and put it to use. Wisdon is what you need to put it to good use. Solomon asked God for wisdom above everything else. We pray that God will give you wisdom to use the wonderful knowledge that you have to give to those people around you.
Love you, grammy and poppy
