I desire to be a woman of prayer. But, I’m not that woman today. But, I know that He can make me that woman.
This blog was started as a means to connect with other people (particularly with regards to our adoption process) and keep a record of things for the kids and for me. I just wanted to remember daily life. Some days, I post something I want to remember. Some days, I post something I just want the kids to remember. Some days, I post something that I hope will encourage or entertain whoever out there may be reading my words. Well, Thursdays are going to be something different.
Thursday’s are going to have things to pray for, as I’ve done for the last 2 Thursdays. I want to commit myself to praying for some specific things that day, not a ton, just a few specific things. And, I want to record those things so that we remember what God has done.
Here are the things I am praying for this Thursday –
- For my husband who works hard to provide for us. Pray that the Lord would strengthen him and give him a clear sense of His calling in his life.
- For me to depend on God–not myself–to keep all the plates in my life spinning. I’ve got a lot of them going right now.
- For our weekend. We’re headed to Great Wolf Lodge for a reunion with our adoption agency. I’m excited to have fun as a family as well as connect with other adoptive families. Pray that our conversation would be encouraging and not just surface conversations as they sometimes can be at events like this.
Pray for me, for these things I list. And, leave me a comment to let me know you did if you don’t mind. It would be a great encouragement. And, I invite you to do the same on your blog. I’m hoping to get a couple brave blogger friends to join me in a blog-prayer group.

Grab this button above and add it to your blog post. All you have to do is highlight the code in the box above and paste it into your Thursday’s Things to Pray For post in the “edit HTML” tab wherever you want the button to appear.
Then, add your link to the list below. Just click on your own Thursday’s Things to Pray For post and copy the web address. That’s a direct link to the specific post (not just your blog in general). Then, paste that url address below. I’ll be sure to come by and pray for your requests too.
I will pray for you and I hope you enjoy the reunion. If you see any of our travel friends please let them know that we are doing well and think of them often.
Praying with you today!
Kelly,
I hope you have a great time at the reunion. We decided not to go because Sophia gets overwhelmed and very anxious in situations with that many people. Plus, Parker is not a fan of water parks!

Kelly,
What a great idea. We all need a reminder to bring our thoughts to prayer in the hectic day to day life. So, you will be in my set of prayers this week.
