National Day of Prayer

Today is National Day of Prayer. More information on National Day of Prayer can be found here because I am too lazy to post a big long summary. (Hey- at least I’m honest about it)

I am part of a National Day of Prayer group that includes 11 religions and several hundred people in California. Our goal this year is to (each of us) ask 20 people to pray for a specific cause tonight with their bedtime prayers or family blessings. (I emailed my 20 people but I'm asking you to join in anyway)

My prayer group is praying for people who are struggling with infertility. This topic is one close to my heart…and currently residing in my belly. Our group is praying that people struggling with infertility find “someone to hold their hope for them”. As I am Christian, I have adapted this prayer request a little to say that I would like people to pray that others with infertility remember that God can hold their hope for them. We’d greatly appreciate your help in raising the world’s voice in prayer on this particular topic. (If you are not Christian, and I know some of you aren't any good thoughts, meditations or otherwise "prayer-like" actions would also be greatly appreciated)

This is not a chain email… you don’t have to forward or reply to it. If you feel a calling to do so please pray. (Of course if you want to forward it, I’m not going to stop you- there is no such thing as too much prayer)

My many thanks & my sincerest prayers for you and yours!

It's totally a God-incidence. I had no plans to post anything in particular today (which is usually the case). I just felt it on my heart. A friend of mine who is struggling with it just lost a baby at 6weeks along, so I guess it's partly that, and partly that I want to have another one so badly right now, but it is not my time, not because of infertility, but I am very aware of the longing due to my own circumstances.

God bless.
