For years I have traveled and spent time in small prayer groups. I am constantly amazed—but not surprised anymore, by the prayers of the elderly. In every groups there seems to be at least one person who doesn’t pray like anyone else in the room.

Listening to them plead with the Lord, you hear their heart, their humility, their intimacy, their dependency. You can tell they have spent hours, years, in the prayer closet, interceding for others.

I am always grateful for these times and these people. They remind me of one such person found in the Scriptures. She’s likely in the hall of fame for intercessors, if there was such a thing.
