a kernel of wisdom from my maw-maw

Postby rocklobster » Mon Aug 10, 2009 4:48 am

I was talking with my Maw-maw (that's what I call my grandmother on my father's side) about people I pray for. She gave me this interesting kernel of wisdom that I think we should all adopt. She said that when she says her prayers at night, she always says a special prayer for anyone who doesn't have anyone to pray for them.
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you. I appointed you to be a prophet of all nations."

it's also good idea to pray for ur enemys ^^ or people in my case that tease u or hurt u.
it makes them better and allows u to feel compassion on them not hate yep.

Yeah... it's such a weird feeling to pray for the people you DON'T like.
Like, asking the people who just annoy or tweak the heck out of me... the people I just wanna punch in the face to be blessed feels really... relieving? I dunno.

I'm still confused about prayer though.

That is a very thoughtful thing. I have prayed for the people who have hurt me, thank God . I pray that they all come to Christ and have a wonderful life. ^_^
