       There’s no doubt that we all have a lot to pray for. People present us with prayers, when we are at church or Bible study. People tell us about things they need prayer for, whether we are talking with them on the phone or meeting them for coffee. And then there are the prayers that we ourselves need, which can be a vast variety of things. Perhaps we are praying for certain family members to come into personal relationship with God. Maybe we are hoping for help with a certain project we are facing in life, or perhaps a specific goal we wish to achieve on down the road. So, there are prayers for others and even prayers for ourselves. One thing I like to do is sometimes use specific prayer days, where, on this day, in addition to the regular stuff I prayer for, I will pray for a certain group of people. One common one I do is praying for the leaders of my church. Let’s say I do that on Sunday’s. So, on Sunday’s after I complete my regular prayer time, I will spend, say five minutes, praying for the leaders of the church, the pastors, the elders, the deacons, and whoever else comes to mind.
