Sharing Prayers

After dinner, I typically work on my prayer calendar. I have a list of people I pray for each day, and I send them texts or emails with what I prayed for them. My daughter can’t see that this is what I’m doing, however. She only sees me typing away on my laptop.

This evening, I invited her to see what I was doing. I showed her the messages I had sent to a co-worker (Jin) and mentor (Bill). She immediately wanted to participate.

She dictated the following email to her grandmother.

Jesus Loves You with all his heart. Don’t feel sad and lonely because he is always with you, and he’ll take care of you all day and all night, and when you choose to pray, he’ll listen very closely.
Love,
Cat

It’s an early Thanksgiving present!

My takeaway: share more of my life with her. Give her a chance to participate if she wants.
