How was your day?

Interesting! Ministers and missionaries are always telling you about their lives, ministry, family and telling you what you ought to do. Little opportunity is given for you to speak to them about yourself.

The other day I wrote about my Typical Day. At the end I invited others to share their day with me. Praise God! Tim took me up on that and took time to give me a full run down on his typical day. I have been praying for Tim for over 30 years. As I read his email today I had little "photo" glimpses of his dogs, his office, wife, friends and etc. Now as continue to pray for him daily there is a new "connection" that will make my prayers more personal and hopefully more effective. He is a busy person, but took time to respond to my invitation.

There are other kinds of persons. Yesterday one person wrote me a few times on Facebook and asked many questions about me and my family. I have known them for over 25 years. When I responded and then began asking about their family the thread ended. Guess they want to know about me, but don't want me to know more about them. Then the other person may be called a "roving spammer" who may do it manually or with software, but they roam around and post their links on the comment sections of blogs or even prayer request boards. There is no personal relationship involved in that at all. I have wondered who the spammers are. What are they like? What is their "typical day" like.

Seriously, I would love to hear about your day. You can go to the JPN web site (see my profile) and hit the contact us button on the menu or write to jpnpray@gmail.com. In the subject line write My Typical Day so that you email won't get thrown out in the email garbage bin. In doing so I can begin to pray for you on a daily basis if you would like. I surely would appreciate you praying for Japan and our ministry of "Reaching One Among Millions".

May God bless you richly!

P.S. The Heavenly Father is also very interested in your typical day. Take time soon to NOT have a normal prayer, but just talk to God like a friend and tell Him outloud about how your day went. It will be a life changing experience!
