Have You Ever Promised To Pray For Someone And Then Forgotten?
Well, I know that I have. Many times. People ask me all the time to pray for them, a family member, or some special intention very frequently. Perhaps they think I have some special connection with the almighty since I am an ordained member of the clergy. I assure you that this is not the case.
I have felt like the lowest of lowlife when all of a sudden days later, I realize that I forgot to pray for whomever or whatever that I have promised. Not liking the feeling of being a low-life, a worthless creature, I started trying to come up with ways to help me remember. I wrote notes. Then lost the notes. I kept a written prayer list. The list got very messy with all of the additions and subtractions. Often times, when I sat down to pray, I did not have the list with me.
