Everytime I Drink a Glass of Iced Tea

Tuesday

There’s so many important things to pray about, but usually I just focus on my family.

For example, I want to pray for victims of sex trafficking.  My heart breaks for little girls sexually abused every day of their lives while I enjoy freedom and safety. My heart breaks…but I rarely remember to pray for them.

So I came up with an idea--a way to make prayer a habit in my life: Why not remind myself to pray by associating certain prayer needs with my daily activities:

• When I drink a glass of iced tea (I like iced tea), I’ll pray for those little girls, even if it's just a quick silent prayer at a restaurant.
• When I get in my car, I’ll pray for unborn babies.
• When I brush my teeth...well, you get the idea. 

Colossians 4:2 says:

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.
