A couple of weeks ago, my prayer was to find a new prayer partner. Huzzah! The same has been found-- we're trying it out, at any rate.
I don't know this woman as well as I've known previous prayer partners. We're feeling things out, and getting started slowly. I'd like prayer from you that we grow to trust and love each other, to support each other well, and to grow closer to God through our relationship. I'm nervous-- she's new to this sort of thing (I think), and I love these partnerships of women so much that I really want her to love it, too. (In so many ways, I often feel like a toddler proudly bringing out her toys to show a guest. It's a blessing, and a curse.)
Oh-- and I've got a thanksgiving, too-- for a long time now, Dave and I have been praying together in the evening. I never think of him as that designated "prayer partner," but he's certainly one of them.
Many of you are securely lodged in my regular prayers-- LG, MC, MS, W&MS, and on and on. If there are specifics, or you want to make sure you're on the list, don't be shy about letting me know.
