A Way To Pray!

Our family has family devotions every morning together at 7 a.m. We meet together
and read through a devotional book, then we pray and do "announcements for the
day." I thought this was very helpful for us and thought I would share with you how
we let everyone pray. We don't always go by this, but it's helpful for the younger
one's in the house who will pray for Ginger and MooMoo (our Dogs) and everything
they see in the house. It can be quite a prayer if ya know what I mean, which isn't
bad at all, it's just we could sit there for a VERY LONG time just on one person
praying and this helps us to "keep a focus" if you will....It goes like this:

Monday-Missionaries (any missionary...we don't always pray for the same one.)
Tuesday-Two Friends
Wednesday-World (example: Haiti. abortion, human trafficking)
Thursday-Thanksgiving  (food, clothes, warmth, friends, etc..anything!)
Friday-Family (example: Amanda, Mema, Aunt Carol and Uncle Sammy)

It is really great! It helps everyone. We normally add any other important prayer
requests before we start praying, but it helps everyone in our house to "stay on
track," which my brother Troy always likes to remind us! lol.

I hope this is helpful to you in any way!
