A very brief word today to remind you that your thoughts and prayers are important. They are important to the people for whom you pray and they are valuable to you as you lift one another up in prayer.

I received a text one morning from a friend that simply reminded me that I was in his prayers that day. Simple? Yes, but incredibly powerful. The idea that someone took the time to check in and offer a word of affirmation is a blessing for the day.

Here’s a thought. When someone comes to mind send a text, an email, or a brief call to say simply, “I’m praying for you today.”

Your thoughtfulness will be a blessing to the person who receives your prayers and you will be blessed for taking the time to bring someone into the presence of God.
