What I'm going to start doing!!

Found this on Randy Alcorn's blog...Jonas and I get in such a rut when we pray at night...I think we're going to start praying through this stuff...it will give us some direction..sometimes we're so dog tired we just don't get very far with our prayers...I bolded the one's that rocked my socks that I don't pray enough about...

Here’s a partial list of things the New Testament tells us to pray for:

Pray for people who give you a hard time (Matthew 5:43-44; Luke 6:28)

Pray for children (Matthew 19:13)

Pray for strength to endure difficult times (Luke 21:36)I don't usually do this when I am not in a difficult time...I should be...
