Prayer and Reflection

Every now and then on Fridays we will take time for prayer and reflection. During this time you can look back at a devotional you missed or look over the questions and see what God is putting on your heart. Take about 10 or so minutes to do this. You can journal if that helps you stay focused.

I also want to challenge you to find someone to pray with. This person could be your mom or dad, a friend, a mentor, a coach, whoever you feel comfortable with.

When Jesus taught us to pray, he used the word us. Sometimes we overlook that in the Lord's Prayer. There is power when we share life with others. We aren't meant to do life alone, so on these days please stretch yourself and find someone to pray with.

Here are some tips to help you:

1. Think and pray about the person you want to pray with.
2. Let that person know that you are wondering if you can both share prayer concerns and then pray together.
3. Remember that prayer doesn't have to be fancy. Prayer is talking to Jesus!
4. Keep the prayer request between you and that person, unless you feel it's something you need to share with an adult.
5. Thank the person for taking time to pray with you and pray for them for the next week.

Remember that I am praying for you!
