Praying for the lost

It is becoming more and more difficult to carve out specific time for prayer.  I find myself praying on the fly, which means that I am not quiet in my spirit and not able to receive fully what God has for me.  I don't like to make New Year's Resolutions, but maybe in this case it may help push me to find "alone" time with the one I love.  His word encourages me to do that, but I need help accomplishing this.

One area I have dedicated time to (even on the fly) is praying for a giant outreach that will take place around Easter of 2011.  It is called Everyone A Chance to Hear (EACH) and it involves around 300 churches in the metro Detroit area and beyond.  I am praying for revival, for protection of the leaders of the church involved, for more people to cover this undertaking with prayer, for God to soften people's hearts so they may receive His word and for unity among the Body.  I am praying for God's direction on what part He wants me to play, and for creativity to execute His plan.

In Christ,

Post Holiday Adjustment

It has been awhile since I've posted anything, but not for lack of anything to write, just a lack of time.  November was a whirlwind of activity and finding time to reflect on those things one is thankful for was difficult.  December was filled with good activity, and was less hectic.  My heart has been searching for answers to a situation within my family and they are not quick in coming.  There has been confirmation of what the problem is, but I need direction as to how to effectively deal with it.

It is time to do serious battle in the trenches of spiritual warfare.  If you are reading this, please pray for me.
