Praying it Forward

I'm sure you remember the movie "Pay it Forward". Remember how wonderful and encouraging it was to see the good deeds 'paid forward'. Each person, both the giver and the recipient was blessed.

I'm thinking of taking it a bit further...hence the title...PRAY IT FORWARD! I can't think of anything more certain, more rewarding than praying it forward.

I don't doubt that this is on my mind because God placed it there. The other night as my husband and I were preparing for bed, I felt this urgent need to begin journaling my prayers and God's answers. I'm not sure where it will lead, but I've decided the journal will be called "Pray it Forward".

SO...I turn the corner on this block of my journey and begin the time of praying it forward.

My prayers today are:

Health for myself and many others
My sister and her splintered family
Finding a church home
My husband's wisdom and growth
Our financial peace
The words I hear from God
The person God is forming me to be
The obedience that eludes me
The passion that drives me
The love that dwells within me

I guess that about covers the first few things I'm praying about!

excellent movie Kim- and excellent thoughts- if we were all to "pray it forward" how might the world change?

Good list of prayer requests for yourself! And a good movie to model from.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who types in my head - I heard from a couple of others - I'm in good company!
