Pray For Others (Even While Sick) | #45
Have you ever been mid-prayer and realized it’s been a repeat of, “Jesus, help ME…guide ME…restore ME…teach ME…bless ME…”?
While there’s certainly nothing wrong with praying for ourselves, there are so many great benefits to praying for other people.
Like most life-changing and eye-opening lessons in life, I learned this truth on one of my bad days.
“I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.” Luke 22:32
