I started going to church when I was 15 and was baptized when I was 18. I was the only member in my family. Then I headed on a mission to France when I was 21. I remember at a challenging part of my mission wondering if anyone was praying for me. I knew all my companions had family praying for them, did I have anyone praying for me? I needed all the help I could get.
Then I got a package in the mail from Kimberly. She was the friend who introduced me to the church when I was 15. She had sent me a bracelet I think. But what I remember clearly in her letter was she said she was praying for me. I cried tears of joy. I longed for those prayers and I freely received them.
I LOVE to give prayers for others. When someone needs a prayer I add them to my prayer cheat sheet and I pray for them every day. I give prayers willingly and freely, because I know they are powerful and I love to tell people I am praying for them, because they may need to hear that.
Matthew 10:8 “Freely ye have received, freely give”
