Father, I have a problem, and it's
weighing heavy on me. It's all I
can think about, night and day.
Before I bring it to you in prayer,
I suppose I should pray for those
who are less fortunate than me...

Those in this world who have
hardly enough food for this day;
and for those who don't have a
roof over their heads at night.

I also pray for families who have
lost loved ones in sudden death;
for parents whose children have
leukemia; for the many people
who are dying of brain tumors;
 for the hundreds of thousands
who are wasting away with other
terrible cancers; for people
whose bodies have been suddenly
shattered in car wrecks;
for those who are lying in the hospital
with agonizing burns over their bodies,
 whose faces have been
burned beyond recognition.

I pray for people with emphysema,
 whose eyes fill with terror as they
 struggle for every breath merely to live;
for those who are tormented beyond
words by irrational fears;
for the elderly who are wracked with
 the pains of aging, whose only
 "escape" is death.

I pray for people who are watching
their loved ones fade before their
eyes through the grief of
Alzheimer's disease;
for the many thousands who are
suffering the agony of AIDS;
for those who are in such despair
 that they are about to commit suicide;
for people who are tormented by the
 demons of alcoholism and drug addiction.

I pray for children who have been
abandoned by their parents;
 for those who are sexually abused;
for wives held in quiet despair, beaten
 and abused by cruel and drunken husbands;
 for people whose minds have been
 bewildered by mental disorders;
for those who have lost everything in
 floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes.

I pray for the blind, who never see the faces
  of the ones they love or the beauty of a sunrise;
for those whose bodies are horribly
deformed by painful arthritis;
for the many whose lives will be taken
from them today by murderers;
 for those wasting away on their death beds.

Most of all, I pray for the millions who
don't know the forgiveness that is in
Jesus Christ...
for those who in a moment of time will be
 swept into hell by the cold hand of death,
 and find to their utter horror the
unspeakable vengeance of eternal fire.
They will be eternally damned to
 everlasting punishment.

Oh God, I pray for them.

Well, that's strange....

I can't seem to remember what my
problem was! In Jesus' name I pray... Amen!

 

Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies,
bless them that curse you, do good to them that
 hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you,
 and persecute you;
Mark 13:33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know
not when the time is.
Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that
 ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things
that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
1Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing.

Have a blessed day!
