God Made Moms To Teach...Pray For Others But Especially When They Come To Mind.
Some times God will lay a person on your heart because He wants you to pray for that person or He wants you to reach out to that person. The other night God placed one of my a friends on my mind. I had not spoken with her in a year but I had had thoughts of her a time or two over the past few of weeks. Over the year, I could have reached out by sending her an email but I didn't have her email address. I could have called but since she lives in another country I had to plan the call ahead of time since we are six hours behind them in time. Well last week while I was laying in bed I started thinking about her. I looked at my cell phone but couldn't call her this time of night. I looked at her local number and called it. I didn't expect an answer I was just going to leave a message. Well I got an answer on the third ring and my friend had been in town for almost four weeks. She was an emotional wreck. I had called at the perfect time because she really needed a friend. She needed someone to listen and even though I was really tired, I listened to her talk and vent for an hour or so. Now I have an idea of what I need to pray since I made the call. It amazes me how God moves. But it's a awesome system. Like I said, I had thoughts of her a few weeks back, I wish I had acted on those thoughts then but I hadn't. I guess I was finally still enough for God to move me to call her even though I had no idea she was back in the states. So when someone is on your mind, pray for them or reach out to them. You never know what your prayers are doing or what a call can do for them. You very well may be preserving a life.
Be blessed and encouraged today, it's your choice.~ Delphine
Romans 8:26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.
3 John 1:2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.
