Prayer Vigil

Our Prayer and Praise ministry kicked off a prayer vigil last evening at 6 pm. They are asking for individuals to come to the church and pray for 30 minute intervals with a goal of having a our church family pray for 24 hours. The prayer vigil has 7 designated stations designed to help us in time. I was scheduled to pray from 6:30 to 7:00 am. During my prayer time I came across the following quote at one of the stations;
When we pray, it is far more important to pray with a sense of the greatness of God than a sense of the greatness of the problem.
To be honest, at times we do focus on the greatness of the problem, before we ever focus on the greatness of God. It is my prayer that I will focus on God's greatness when I pray - after all compared to God, most of our problems are inconsequential.

On a personal note - Hats off to our prayer and praise ministry for putting together a great prayer vigil.
