Prayer

In the last two wees I have had the privilege of hanging out with so many people that I love! Some of these were, unfortunately, only brief encounters and others lasted a few hours. Many awesome conversations were had about life, both past and present, and the world we live in. A number of my encounters with loved ones involved prayer. Some prayers were said over the phone, some before a meal and others involved individuals specifically praying for me and my trip.

Prayer is such a powerful thing. It allows us to come together with those around us in appreciation of our creator. The awesome thing is, there is no specific way to pray, no format that needs to be followed. It does not matter which words you choose or what order you put them in, God loves it all the same.

Aside from actually sharing in prayer with people, I have had many friends send me texts and messages letting me know that they were praying for me. That, I must tell you, is an awesome feeling and such a joy! The fact that people want to take time out of their days to lift me up to God in prayer is amazing. I am so thankful for each of them and will selfishly ask that you continue to pray for me over the next six weeks. Pray that I remain safe and make a difference. Pray for the individuals that I come into contact with that I may love them and show them grace continually. Pray for the girls that More Than Me works to help everyday that their lives may be changed for the better and they may reach their fullest potential.

No matter where you are or what you are doing you can talk with God. You can lift up your joys and sorrows to the one who will love you, no matter what. How awesome is that?!
