The Shunammite woman faced a seemingly insurmountable obstacle. Her son became sick and died. Elisha prayed to the Lord on her behalf.
Not all obstacles are as serious as the Shunammite woman's. Some barriers just cloud the horizons of our lives in the present.
Such is the case with many of those who attend my church. They have hopes and dreams of the future, juggling many roles. Some are living on inadequate funds. Some live far away from family. Their lives are loaded with responsibilities and discouragement often sets in.
I find great fulfillment in praying for the members of my church - for their safety, their families, and their lives in general. The Lord knows what obstacles they face.
Lord, help me see that praying for others is a privilege.
