I need to record Landis and let you hear him pray. It is inspiring.On Wednesdays, we do Pray for Me... Pray for Others to help build the sense of community for our readers. This particular feature is near to the heart of my dear wife, so you can know she will be praying for you. Please check back a couple of times today as the list grows. See which entries touch your heart.
Pray for Me... Pray for Others is pretty simple:
- List a short prayer request for YOU, and a link for more detail if needed.
- Then submit a prayer request for someone else, or some other situation that you know about. Include a link for them if available. Be specific.
Be specific... provide a link for more information if available. I'm sure that other people will be VERY blessed to have you request prayer for them, and include a link to their blog so that those praying can visit them.
Questions? If you have suggestions or feedback to make this work better, don't hesitate to email me: brent@brentriggs.com
Our Requests:
Abby is in the home stretch of this most difficult phase of treatment. She is getting blood today but is showing some real signs that the latest chemo is about to really get her. We ask for your prayers for her comfort and healing.
We have some friends in Charlotte, Aimee and Adam, who are really having opportunities to trust God. Their real estate business went belly up due to the current economic situation; they had a ONE POUND premature daughter about the same time who has been in NICU for months. Adam has a new, very promising business opportunity and is getting that fired up. Take a minute to check out their blog, and bookmark it. It's a story you'll want to keep up with.
I'm doing a feature on them in March issue of Serious.Life Magazine.
Pray for Me... Pray for Others - Instructions:- Use the form below to enter your prayer requests. You must enter an "identity", and put something in at least one of the "pray for me" or "pray for others" in order to be included (links to blogs are not required).
- If you link to YOUR blog, please include the following HTML in a post on your blog so that we can create a linked network of prayers (your link will allow others to find us, and be able to participate; make sure you are in HTML mode when pasting this code).
- Put out an email or post on your blog and encourage everyone you know to come and join us in prayer.
- Look over the list and pray as God leads. Come back and visit the list two or three times today as it will grow all day long.
Remember... if you don't take the time to pray for others, then on what basis can you really expect God to lead others to pray for you? I created this with "community" in mind - pray for you, pray for me, pray for others - so that we are both giving and receiving as a community which is far more spiritually productive than simply wanting everyone to pray on our behalf.
Truth is, many people do not have a community they can ask for prayer. We hope to become that community for them.
Let me know if you have suggestions or questions about Pray for Me... Pray for Others. If this is a blessing to you, please leave a comment and let us all know.

I check this blog several times a day. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed, and as if the life I wanted for my children and myself is impossible. When I read about Abby and the whole family, I realize that anything is possible. I pray for Abby and for all of you.
Praying that Abby has some relief from the pain!!
