It can be easy to just let life happen to us or feel like we are barely hanging on and just trying to get through each day. Yet, we are challenged to live intentionally, to walk in a way that is pleasing to God and to be used by Him. In 2 Corinthians 6 and 7, Paul encourages us to not receive the gift of salvation in vain, but to make the most of what we have been given and to share it with others. We get to reflect the grace of God to those around us and be ambassadors for Christ. Let us not waste the time we have been given. Listen in as we walk through these chapters with our Louisiana State Coordinator, Laura Riley.

ABOUT OUR GUEST

I first heard about Moms in Prayer on Focus on the Family in 1985 when I was just a teenager. I remember thinking that when I had children, I wanted to give my kids the gift of prayer. Fast forward 25 years, my sons were 10 and 12 and our family was going on a 5-week trip to Africa for my husband to teach at Uganda Baptist Seminary. I was asked to teach the women about parenting. The Lord impressed on me to not be afraid, to read the new book I had brought on the trip, Every Child Needs a Praying Mom by Fern Nichols, and to use that book to teach the four steps of prayer to the Ugandan moms. When I got home, I realized I couldn’t go to Africa and do something I wasn’t willing to do in my own town, so I started a Moms in Prayer group.

Whether our kids are in a private school, public school, or homeschool, we will be better parents when we are consistently praying with other women for our children.

It is wonderful to have other women praying over my children. I can look back at the prayer sheets and see that God has been faithful. God continues to shape my sons into the men of God He wants them to be. Now I pray not only for our two sons, but also our two daughters-in-law, and our two grandsons. God is faithful, generation after generation.
