pray for the children

i wanted to get this post out early - earlier than my normal posts - as a plea for anyone who reads this to say a prayer for those who are in need.

click on the above button (or here) to link to janne's jabberwocky post on praying for the children. she has designated this day, july 26th, as a day to lift unified prayers for children who are suffering and for families who are struggling. her post today gives us a few situations in which to pray for.

as i was reading some of the comments to this post, i came across one from 5 minutes for mom, a popular blog site. i didn't know this, but they have a page designated to highlighting many children out there who are hurting and could use prayer. the page is appropriately entitled, faith lifts. hope you can check this out, also.

the LORD has heard my cry for mercy; the LORD accepts my prayer. (psalm 6:9)
He hears us and does answer prayer!
