Share a Prayer

The power of prayer is never to be underestimated.  We all pray differently and at different times during the day, or week.  If you are like me, I am willing to bet that your prayers sound like more of a shopping list of things needed or wanted:

Please find me a job
Please give me THIS job!!!
How about the winning numbers in this week's lottery (another version of this is "Hey, do these numbers look good?)
Please, please, PLEASE

These are little more than pleas thrown out to get something.

Let's try, together, a different approach.  Find a quiet moment during your day and begin a simple conversation.  I will start...

"Hi, God.  Got a sec?  Just wanted to check in and say, 'hi!'.  Thanks for all the good things in my life.  Thanks for the wonderful family that surrounds me.  Really, just, thanks.  I love you."

I have learned through my church's prayer ministry that shared prayer, with a partner or in full communion, is a wonderful, powerful gift.

So, please post a prayer request in the comments section below.  Or, if you prefer to share a personal, private prayer feel free to send a request to me directly and I will respond.
