If we aren't regular praying for specific people - bluntly, it probably means we
don't care about them and their salvation or we would at least take some time to
pray. Or we may not take time in our lives to build friendships with people. I
shared that I believe in heaven (yes, the Kingdom of heaven in this life and
after this life) and I also said that I believe in a hell. Which means people
will be spending eternity with God or without Him. We are going to be giving a
sermon on hell in about a month. But I know I cannot sometimes sleep at night,
thinking about people I care about and ponder their eternity. When we don't have
relationships with people outside the church - real relationships - it is easy
to sleep at night and get caught in our Christian bubble and not pray for them
or take time with them.
-Ouch! Am I showing my love through prayer and more intentional relationships?
