Thank you for sharing with us and holding us accountable. One of the biggest blessing we could be in someone's life is to bring them and their burden before the throne (we should know, because we've all been on the recipient of those prayers at one time or another in our own lives.) Love ya! Mom : ) What a great and TRUE blog…I think we all struggle with this when life is going at zillion miles a minute – but it should NEVER be taken or said lightly.

Nice work, Ileana. I used to do that often - mostly because if I don't write something down right away...it's pretty much gone. This might be super geeky (not that there's anything wrong with that), but one of the things I started doing after having similar encounters was scribbling people's names down on a 3x5 card. (I am anti long prayer lists). I carry that thing around in my devo stack (a random collection of texts I read...different from my DEVO hat, which is also fun). I write down the date and situation and keep them on my "D.P.L." (daily prayer list...but "D.P.L." is more fun to say) until the end of the month and either check in with them for another round or remove them at the end. It's kind of nice to see the cards over the months and see how God has worked in those situations...and in me. I love it when elephants are called out. Nice work, Ileana.

Thanks for being authentic Ili.

It's always awesome to have friends that build you up in your walk, instead of tear you down! That’s great to hear Barby!

I have been guilty of that, and the Lord has used a friend of mine - who is a prayer "warrior" - to help me change. I am very careful to say those words now! When I do, I try to remind myself immediately to go ahead and pray, and not wait for later. Very good point!!
