At the beginning of October I set a challenge to me, to pray for all of my Facebook friends everyday. I am proud to say I did pretty good. I think I only missed a few days.
Now, I am sure you are asking how could I pray for all of my friends specifically? Well, this is how I did it. I pray each morning after my crew has gone to school and work. That is my quiet time to talk with God about what is going on in my life. I called each persons name in my friends list and asked God to watch over that person and their family. I lifted each person to Him for His grace. I know, I don't know their troubles or pain but He does.
When you pray for others, putting yourself aside, you are also blessed. I do feel blessed because of this challenge. It made me aware that I should think of others and always be praying for those in need whether I know them or not.
I am not a holyer than thow kinda person. I just have a passion for God in my life and I want to share that with everyone. My family and I have been so blessed by God's grace and I just want everyone to know how great He is. I am not perfect and the great thing about that is, God does not care. He wants us, in all our imperfect ways, and for that I am grateful.
