In any case, even though I did less intercessory prayer for others this past week, I did still have some good group prayer times. We often pray in class, so I took part in that...also we prayed in church and in men's Bible Study. Unfortunately Men's Prayer Breakfast was cancelled last Saturday, so I missed out on that. I plan on posting again on Sunday...so until then...even if you're busy, don't forget to pray!
When Shirleen and I were dating I read a book called "Too Busy Not to Pray" by Bill Hybels. It was a really interesting book. I also remember hearing stories about Martin Luther who would make sure that the more busy he was, the earlier he would rise to pray more than normal. I wish I had that practice in intercessory prayer. Alas, I do not. This past week was a really busy one for me. In the midst of being busy, my intercessory prayer life made a drastic change from being focused on praying for others to praying for myself. Certainly praying for our own situations is important...but shouldn't we still pray for others at the same time? A good reminder that we all have areas to grow in.
