Prayer Requests 7/9/09

Here are tonight's prayer requests from the Love in Action feeding.

Several people tonight told me they don't pray, but when I asked whether they'd mind if we prayed FOR them, on their behalf, they agreed. I strongly believe that asking others to pray for you can act as a first step towards accepting the love God is offering. For a person who's been trying to do life "on their own," it's an act of bravery to put your name on a little slip of paper .... to allow yourself hope that maybe God is really there, and really knows you by name, and really hears your prayers. Hope can feel like a dangerous thing sometimes.

Those of us who have placed our hopes in Christ know that His love is abundant and His grace is transformative. Some of the people who have written their names below are reaching out to Him for the first time. Lift their prayers up powerfully!

And two more prayer requests from Kathy:

-- Gabby, doing a year in the hospital. She's had two liver transplants and a kidney transplant. She was on her way home to recovery, got into a car accident and was sent back to the hospital needing the 2nd liver transplant and now the kidney transplant. She is Jewish, open to God's miracle, hoping He won't abandon her as those closest to her have.

-- The other is for Scott from Calvary House. He has been married for 11 years and has never been separated from his wife before. He is in the Calvary House program and had an opportunity to go home for a visit with his wife. At the last minute, the ministry said no, he had to go minister with Love in Action tonight. He was upset and mad over the question of "why" but came anyway. He shared and prayed with a man tonight and the joy of his experience healed him on the spot and he was walking out rejoicing that the Lord was behind the "no" to his visit. The whole experience tonight has really changed him and he can't wait to get back to us. He loved the whole night. - Kathy
