2 Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. 3 At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— 4 that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak. 

5 Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. 6 Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.

I remember attending Via De Cristo 100 a couple of years ago and one of the leaders pointed to this little chapel and he said that chapel is the engine to a great weekend. Every minute of this weekend, someone is in that chapel praying for you. 

Prayer makes a difference both for those we are praying for and for ourselves. A prayer life filled with thanksgiving, confession, and intercession for others helps to move our lives from selfish concerns for our own lives to grateful and loving hearts for others. As you continue in prayer may your life be a shining light for others. May it transform your life and the lives of others. May your thoughts be for the concern of others to know Christ and may your words bring hope and life to others.
