Prayer Requests 12/27/12

Dear Love in Action prayer team,

As 2012 draws to a close, I want to thank you all for being such an important part of this ministry! God knows us each so intimately, he knows the number of hairs on our heads. Yet many of our Thursday night guests feel invisible to the rest of us. Praying for someone by name or by specific need is a way to reflect the kind of individual concern and personal loving attention our Father shows us. That's what you do each week for our guests!

For those of us who have had the opportunity to physically hold the handwritten prayer requests each week, it feels like a sacred act. Our Father in heaven treasures every one of those little slips of paper and responds to each and every need, no matter how big or small. He knows the needs before they are written, and He calls us to lift them up to him, calls us to linger over them and extend ourselves in love toward those who have written them. He calls us to know each other by name, just as He knows us, and to see each other—finally—as He sees us.

As we begin 2013, I would ask you to prayerfully consider whether you feel called to take a larger role in our prayer team, even if for a season. We are seeking someone to type up the prayers each week after they have been collected so they can be distributed to the group by e-mail and blog. I will continue to handle the distribution, and you do not need to be able to attend our Thursday night meals to participate. Please let me know if you or someone you know feels called to this loving act, and please pray for this need to be met. We are certain our Father will lovingly respond!

As always, the prayer requests from last Thursday's Love in Action meal are below.

Again, many blessings for a happy and healthy new year!

In His Love,

Erika

Thank you for keeping this ministry and our guests in your prayers so faithfully! On behalf of the Love in Action team, we wish you and yours a merry, blessed Christmas!

Blessings,
Erika

He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.

Prayer Requests 11/15/12

The prayer requests from Thursday's Love in Action meal are below.

As we celebrate Thanksgiving this week, please hold in special prayer those who are suffering, those who are without homes or jobs, those who are struggling to feed themselves and their families. Be in prayer for the under-employed and the "invisible" homeless who are sleeping on friends' floors or living in transitional housing while they await a breakthrough. Pray for people battling demons of all kinds. Pray for people who are afraid to call or write home, too ashamed to reach out to their families. Pray for parents who are too sick to parent and children who are alone and left wanting.

As we count our many blessings, let us be mindful of the grace that makes them possible; grace we didn't earn, but that was paid in full for us by Jesus Christ. 

I'll be saying a special prayer of thanks for all of you, my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Blessings and peace to you and yours,
Erika
