I have an unbelievable joy that the Holy Spirit has given me. I just want to tell the world about it! I want all of my friends to know and I want them to have the same joy that I have found in Christ!
As soon as my prayers had been answered my life spiritually had gotten back on track. Then I began to realize something: I began to see my friends and there problems more often. I began to see what I remember praying about every night for years. I still prayed about these things before my spiritual life was back on track but I was so caught up trying to fix my life that I couldn't see my friend's problems from the heart. Now I'm back to praying for my friends with a passion and a love that I have learned from Christ.
The more my Spiritual life straightens the more my life as an intercessor grows. It pains me to see my youth group lose sight of why the church runs and look more on, "how it should run" (in their eyes). People the Church runs because of Christ don't lose sight of that.
Now I see my friend's pain and it hurts me so much. I see that kid that gets made fun of at church all the time and can't help but think that he will never know Christ, like I do, because no one will show him. I see that girl that has an insecurity that she won't let go of and I just want to tell her God LOVES you and will take that insecurity!
Being an intercessor makes me get into my friend's life and see the pain in their eyes or insecurity. Guys I'm here to talk if you need help, we all fall trust me I know!
The weight of the world is crashing down on me and the role of the intercessor is heavy. Please pray for me for I still fall and I still need your prayers. I am still only in the race looking for the finish line. I want to find it and be with Jesus, but I know full well that there is still work to do here on earth. And I will stay knowing I am trying to do God's will.
Grace and Peace
