Greetings Prayer Warriors,
The importance of prayer and making time for it isn’t lost on anyone who reads this. However, everyone has experienced days where squeezing in all your obligations and desires is quite challenging. Thus, I love the sentiment St. Vincent de Paul shared with his followers, “If a needy person requires medicine or other help during prayer time, do whatever has to be done with peace of mind. Offer the deed to God as your prayer.”
Let’s never forget the value of such “prayer in action.” Be intentional this weekend and be more focused on being truly present for your family. Eliminate all that unnecessarily distracts you. Help the elderly, assist the children, listen to the lonely, and pray for eyes to see the less obvious needs of a relative.
As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace. 1 Peter 4:10
As you practice actionable prayer this weekend, you just may be the earthly angel someone was praying for. Your words and deeds will praise God, and the world will become a better place.
Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet
Encourage another to live their prayer life. Pass it on!
