Would you be willing to write a prayer to help a friend?
Don’t you ever wonder what other people pray like? I know I do!
What if there was a place you could turn to have some extra prayers in your pocket? That is exactly what I would like to do.
- Prayer is a simple.
- Prayer is a conversation.
- Prayer is processing.
- Prayer is part of relationship.
Recently I heard that we need to be processing with God. Because I am a verbal processor it has always helped to process with people, bounce ideas off of them, get feedback and then come to a conclusion with confidence. My warning in this statement is that I have not always chosen the best people to process with and it usually leads to a bad conclusion or worse…judgement. So, process with someone who loves you unconditionally, won’t judge you, willing to have honest conversation and will lead you down the right path…oh only God can do that! So process with God.
To have a simple, honest, processing prayer time does not take hours on end or even a certain time of the day. I have found that having a few prayers on hand helps moves me toward a thought where I can process with God about a certain topic.
Here is a prayer from a friend about acceptance:
Heavenly Father, thank you so much for loving me. For forgiving me of my sins and my flaws. Thank you for allowing me to bring them to you. Lord, I’m struggling to accept my circumstances. I know you’re in charge of them but I want to fix and control my circumstances. I also know I’m failing at that control. Father, would you lay your hand on me to show me how to accept my stuff, no matter what, so that I can be in your will, so that I can learn to trust you with all of my life. Please help me to grow a bigger faith in you to allow acceptance to be second nature. Then I can testify to your glory and what an amazing God you are. Lord, I love you. I want to accept the things you do in my life, good and bad. Show me the way. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Would you offer a prayer for your sisters to help them process with God?
