Happy Monday! That means it’s time to Put It To Work! For those of you who are new to my blog, Put It To Work is my regular feature on Mondays. Monday mornings can be chaotic & stressful. I think that makes it a perfect time for us to swap prayer intentions with the promise of “putting them to work” for one another.
What’s that mean?
It means that we’ll actively unite any little suffering we might have during the week to the cross for the other person’s intention.
Here are my intentions for the week:
- GodTeens: Our parish assistant pastor is joining us for dinner and our GodTeens meeting afterward on Wednesday. Our teens came up with questions to ask him that I sent ahead of time. We’ll spend the evening in discussion. Please pray that the time is fruitful, that the Holy Spirit speaks through our assistant pastor, and that the teens’ ears are opened to hearing whatever it is that God wants them to hear.
- Marriage: For a renewed commitment to our couple prayer time before bed. Philip and I are trying to implement something different as we begin the new year. Please pray for our success!
- Kids: For a smooth transition as we get back into the everyday preschool routine after Christmas vacation.
- A personal intention.
Your turn! What intentions can I start “putting to work” for you this week? I will add them to my prayer journal and pray for you by name throughout the week. Please share them in the comment box below, on the blog Facebook page, or send them to me via the “contact” button on the main menu bar.
Thank you in advance for your prayers! Hope you’re having a blessed start to 2015!
