My P-List

My blogging bud Amy came up with a great idea to help remind us to pray throughout the day at moments we wouldn't necessarily remember to pray, like when you're driving, sitting at work, on your computer at home, etc.

I put my P-List on my home computer because there's not much time during work that I sit, and I think I'm gonna put one in my car, too. Originally it was started to pray for our blogging buddies, which is what most of mine are, but I couldn't help to add a few of my hometown friends and family who have been on my heart lately as well.
Even if you can just say a quick prayer at different times throughout your day, God hears it.
The Bible makes many promises regarding prayer. He are just a few of my favorites:

Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
Psalm 55:17

And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you.
Luke 11:9

Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer, thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am...
Isaiah 58:9

...he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.
Isaiah 30:19

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Matthew 21:22

Just reading those over and over gives me a peace. It makes me feel silly for sometimes worrying even after I've prayed about things.
We can be rest assured that God is a promise keeper. When we give it to Him, we've got to let go off it. We can't still be holding on to it by a thread. Fully let go and let God. HE IS the CREATOR OF ALL THINGS.

Thank you Lord, for hearing our prayers.

I love the P-list idea too. Amy rocks doesn't she? Thanks for keeping me on your list too! (At least I'm assuming that's me on there).

By the way, I'm pretty sure my follow me gadget is broken and I haven't a clue on how to fix it. Bummer. )o:

Hey! Thanks for your interest in our site! I will add you to my blog list, also. Will you send me an email at britninicholson@bellsouth.net and I will give you the log in info. I have our site password protected because we have lots of personal info on it...it started out as a wedding website and I never knew that it would one day become a blog or I would have planned a little better :)

This is a wonderful idea! Though I won't do it at my work b/c I work one day a week in a pharmacy but I will hang it on my wall.
