Prayer Requests January 20, 2009

This is a new section for my blog where you are welcome to leave requests for prayer and it doesn't have to be big things. The more we stand together, the stronger we are. Feel free to add your favorite scriptures. There are so many times that we feel like we are alone and that there is no one else who cares, even when we are surrounded by friends and family, so this is a place where you can come, leave your prayer requests and pray for others. We can even add dates later when the prayer was answered. I have been doing this on my own with a handwritten list that I keep in a drawer in the bathroom. I read over it, pray over it, and add dates for when the Lord answers a prayer. It helps me remember that He does answer prayer, but on his time schedule and not mine, i.e. He is never early nor ever late, but right on time. :) By seeing the start of a prayer and the completion of a prayer, it brings me comfort in knowing He heard me and when it takes a long time for a prayer to be answered, then I can realize by seeing it in print that He had a reason for not answering a prayer when I thought He should. :-)
