Friday Prayer Challenge

James 3:17-18

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.

I challenge you this week to pray this prayer for others, especially those who are not peaceful. Pray for the argumentative, the ones who challenge you or your beliefs. Pray for those who adamantly believe in everything you don’t.

Lord, may we all abide in your wisdom and be filled with all the qualities of Christ. May we pray for others and treat them with love, peace, and respect.

After raising a family and then teaching for over 20 years, I retired from full-time work. Now I spend time with family, tap dance, take long walks in nature, read, and write. I have published two stories in Chicken Soup for the Soul books and over a dozen devotions. My current goal is to publish a book of meditations over the gospels and to share my devotional writing on my blog. I hope you enjoy and are inspired.
