Today I went through a box that had yet to be unpacked. I pulled out some pictures, statues, and other nick-knacks. Then I came across a small tote bag that had some books and prayer cards in it. Included in the bag was a journal. I seem to start journals here and there, so I am never sure what I have written in one. This particular journal held my prayer list. I remember starting it when I promised people I would pray for them. I wanted to make sure I was keeping my word, so I started writing them down. As I went through the list, I realized that some issues that I prayed for were resolved and now distant memories. Many were simply names of people. I am going to try to keep this one going. It helps me to be more connected to the people I care for and more connected to God as when I look back, I can see how His gentle hand has been at work.
I Found God today in answered prayers and resolving to continue praying for those I care for.
