Father God,
We lift up missionaries returning from the field. Ecclesiastes 3 reminds us that You have a specific season for facets of our lives, and for many missionaries, their seasons in the field are not permanent. We lift them up in prayer as they return back to their homelands from the field. May they know they fulfilled their seasons in accordance to Your timeline for their lives, and the next assignment and chapter You have for them is important to Your heart. Help them to receive encouragement, affirmation, and support from those around them and for them not to become dry spiritually. They are following Your call for their next stage of life, and we pray for the glorious adventure to be unlocked in that season. Guide them as they venture forward, providing confirmation and assurance in each step they take. Your plans may not always make sense, but we can trust fully that Your lead is the best path.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
