Background
We have all heard it at one time or another.
It Goes
- It goes I am praying for you.
- I am praying for you. Hope everything goes well
- How are things? Is there a specific request, or are there things you will like to me go to the Lord to, on your behalf
Our Response
Our response goes:-
- Oh Thank You
- If we know the person well
- We will really take time to thank them; knowing their investment
- We might offer specific areas that we will like prayed upon
And, we go on about our business.
We go on and do what needs to be done.
Happy Go Lucky
The Happy Go Lucky guy, says to himself, I have prayers, let me go do what I need to do.
He says to himself. Now I know I am going to get that pay raise.
I am going to get that new thing, I have been wanting to get.
Matured Faith
As one gets older and experiences life a bit more, one is a bit more circumspect.
One is a bit more reflective and guarded.
One looks for counsel within a safe harbor of family and friends.
People who have been through some things.
One says please watch over me, pray over me.
Please go to the Lord on my behalf.
Discernment
Discernment is important, as well.
One can read through the fluff of life.
People who do not have anything to add; just saying things for the sake of saying it.
Watchful
Family, please let us continue to be mindful of what we are being entrusted with.
Life is tough, times are tougher.
Be sober, for yourself and those who you are caretakers and caregivers to.
