I’ve been praying for you
It happened again this morning as I was walking Wrightsville Beach. I saw someone from The Bridge whom I had never met, so I stopped and introduced myself to him. His response? “You’re Becky Graves? I’ve been praying for you, and I’ve been praying for Haiti Awake, too.”
How humbling that is. How encouraging that is. Over and over I meet people who tell me, “I have been praying for you.” Friends I have known for years remind me daily, “I’m praying for you.”
Friday as I was waiting for my lab appointment and feeling my stress rise, I got a text from a friend, “Praying for good lab results today 🙏.” I cannot tell you how many times I’ve gotten a text like that at just the right moment because someone was listening to the Holy Spirit’s leading.
Friends, have you ever wondered if your prayers matter? I am here to tell you that I am living proof that they do. I feel them every day.
Here’s my challenge to you. Let the Holy Spirit lead your prayers today and reach out to the person you pray for. Let them know you care. Let them know you are praying. I promise you it will mean more than you’ll know.
“Pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.”
