Bible Passage: Psalm 130:1-2
How is your prayer life? Do you tell folks you’ll pray for them and never do it? I plead guilty to that sometimes. Mostly, that has been in my past prayer life. Today I called a gentleman from church. He needed prayers. I was about to tell him, “I’ll pray for you.” Instead, I said, “Before we get off the phone I want to pray with you.” That was a good thing. He appreciated the time in prayer.
We also tell people that they are in our prayers and we pray for them one time, or maybe a few times, and we forget to keep it up. The reasons we forget to keep praying is that we think their problems may have gone away. If there isn’t some constant reminder to pray, it is natural to forget to lift folks up before our Father. I think a prayer list is essential.
