Are you praying for a friend or loved one to come to Christ?  If so, I want to encourage you today.

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International.  If you’ve prayed for someone to come to Christ for any length of time, you know that prayer is work and that it’s easy to become discouraged or even to give up.  But today, I want you to take heart and to be reassured that God is “mighty to save.”  As Charles Spurgeon wrote, God is not only mighty to save those who repent but he is able to make men repent.  He is mighty to give people new hearts and to give them faith.  He is mighty to make the man who hates holiness to love it and to constrain the one who despises Christ’s name, to bend his knee before Him.  Think about it, our best proof of this is is that God saved us.  So, I encourage you today to not give up praying for those whom God has placed on your heart.  For more tips and tools including a prayer resource to help empower your prayer life and witnessing, visit our website at ShareLife.today.
