CALL TO PRAYER!
The Salvation Army Call to Prayer for December 29, 2011
Remember to thank God for the many who have given so generously to help the needy this Christmas. May God bless and touch them! “The reason for the Season?”…. It is Jesus!
Your Special Gift
What’s the most special gift you’ve ever received? Why was it special? Chances are this gift isn’t precious to your heart because it was expensive or unique. Instead it was likely something thoughtful from a person dear to you. Perhaps it met a need in a desperate time, brought comfort in a season of pain, or simply offered good memories of special times. The fact is, that our most cherished gifts are often those that come from the heart.
As Christians, we can offer such a gift every day, even to those we’ve never met. It’s the gift of intercession – seeking God’s aid on behalf of friends, strangers, and even enemies. Perhaps the greatest thing about intercession is that it doesn’t require any special talents or training, just a compassionate heart and a desire to see God make a difference in someone else’s life.
These Call to Prayer lists give each of us an opportunity to give the gift of prayer to those specially in need of our prayers. Give the gift of your prayer!
