Pass a Prayer

I was reading a post on the newly created Pass a Prayer blog, and was inspired by a woman's mission to make prayer an everyday part of other people's lives. Her name is Annie, and i think she might be a bit of a genius.

She suggests that whenever we are feeling particularly inspired, overwhelmed, or just in the need of prayer, that we take the time to write the words down and leave them somewhere where they can be found by others.

She explains, "I decided that I would write the words I needed to hear in the form of a prayer and pass it along to whoever may encounter it. So I scrawled the prayer on a scrap piece of paper, dated it, and noted at the bottom to "Pass a prayer..." Then I placed it in the hymnal book."

I personally believe this is a fantastic idea! It's a great oportunity to share God's love with others without being overbearing or awkward.

"I hope that together we can send messages of hope and peace and love to those who need it most. That we can bring unexpected moments of light to those who may feel left in the dark. Or that we can simply bring a smile to someone's face" annie writes.

At the same time, i feel it would add dimensions to our own lives. Writting down your prayer will get your feelings off your chest and probably make the world seem like a better, happier, safer place.
