Life isn't just about us. It's about other people too. This is a room for you to pray for other people and their situations, our government and leaders, anything that's not ourselves. Stand in the gap and shake heaven. Shoulder other people's burdens and care. Shout God's grace, goodness and provision for them. Pray God's heart.

re: iraq
Father I pray that Jamie and the other young men and women going out to Iraq would come to a deeper awareness of issues if life, death and eternity. I pray for Jamie those words which God spoke to Moses when He called Him to go and deliver the Israelites from Pharaoh; Moses was feeling totally inadequate, but God said to him, "Certainly I will be with you" (Exod 3:12a).
Certainly, Lord, you will be with Jamie.
