How are you going at praying daily for your friends to find life in Christ?
I have forgotten some days, but I’ve found it a helpful discipline to call out to God for those friends and also to remind me to connect with them and look for opportunities in conversation with them.
We began in February identifying 3 friends to pray for daily and provided training in ‘Growing Conversations About Jesus’. In March our focus is on conversations with those friends to deepen friendships and perhaps share with them something of our faith in Jesus. Now as we head towards April we focus our attention on invitations.
Will you be inviting friends to the Women’s ‘Paint and Sip‘ event, or the Men’s ‘Jesus, Beer and Pizza’ event, the Hope for the Illawarra events, or perhaps our Easter services?
Last Sunday I was reflecting in conversation about the way God has saved several people in the last few months as they’ve been drawn to come to Church and drawn to put their faith in Jesus and find life in him through forgiveness of their sins. Reflecting on the way God has worked in these people gives me confidence in my prayers that God can work in my friends too.
Blessings,
Ben
