Hey, sorry I haven't posted anything in quite some time. Life has been busy. I know most of my posts have been about prayer and this one will be to. I am overwhelmed at how much God is working in my prayer life, as well as my youth group's and our whole church. Since January i know of at least 5 people that I have been praying for have been saved!
Our youth pastor shared in our youth hour how he had been feeling a growing burden for prayer in our youth group and church. He preached a few messages on it, and in my family my parents had been saying the same thing. It was obvious God was wanting me to pray more. And look at what he has done!
In Sunday school 3 weeks ago our youth pastor decided to just have a prayer meeting. Two of the requests were for a girl named Elisa who hated God, hated her Christian school, and didn't care for what her friend Sarah was telling her. The other was a man 21 years old who had been diagnosed with cancer. Courtney a girl in our church asked for prayer that she would have chances to give the gospel to her friend. 2 weeks later both Elisa and the man Tyler were saved.
I can't tell you how good it felt when I heard that. I had been praying for both for only 3 weeks and God had answered my prayer along with all the others who were praying for Elisa and Tyler. At our Easter drama at leas t 1 person was saved, and possibly more. God works when we pray!
Will you keep praying for that friend who seems like they won't ever come to God? Or maybe will you start a prayer life in your own walk with God. Whatever it is remember they God works when we pray.
