Prayer requests


This week, we are studying a triumphant Psalm that reminds us of the Almighty's compassion for us.

Isaiah told us much the same thing as David did:
Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth;    break forth, O mountains, into singing!For the Lord has comforted his people    and will have compassion on his afflicted. (Isaiah 49:13)
Here's an important question:
Do we show that same compassion for others?
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. (I Corinthians 1:3-4)
One wonderful way to show compassion is to hold up our brothers and sisters in prayer. To know that someone has looked you in the eye, taken your hand, and assured you that they will be praying about your problem, your stress, is one of the great comforts of the believer's life!

We do that virtually, here.
If you have a prayer request, please leave a comment so that others can pray alongside you. If you experience an answer and wish to share, the rest of us can praise Him with you.
