JUST PRAY
Today's reading: Numbers 15, Mark 14:32-72, Psalm 53

"And they came to an olive grove called Gethsemane, and Jesus said, Sit here while I go and pray." Mark 14:32 NLT

Jesus asked His friends to do Him a favor.

To pray with Him.

Not to offer advice on what He should do.

Or quote a Bible passage.

Not to give recommendations of good doctors.

Not to provide details of a friend's friend's aunt's veterinary's ordeal when they went through the same thing.

Not to hand them a new Christian t-shirt, pair of cross earrings or a new Bible devotion.

Not to bake them three 9x13 casseroles, a dozen cookies and a crock-pot full of tuna surprise.

He asked them to pray...just pray. (And I hesitate to even type, 'just pray', because it is such a powerful tool in our arsenal.)

Maybe you have a friend who needs you to do just that.

No advice. No counsel. No preaching. No patting them on the hand. No even coming over to their house.

They just need your prayers. Your heartfelt, intentional, powerful, God-believing prayers.

Can you do that for them?
