Friends

I got a new book that I am enjoying. "Sparkling Gems from the Greek" by Rick Renner.
Today's verse was Eph. 1:16, I cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you always in my prayers.
He asks a few questions at the end of the study and one was:

"When you pray,do you focus only on the 'problem people' who bother you and steal your peace, or do you always make certain to take the time to thank God for the faithful ones?"

I have to admit I often spend more time praying for the people I'm struggling with. I need to be in prayer about them but I also need to remember to pray for those that are a blessing to me. I spent some time thanking God for these special people and praying for His blessing on them and enjoyed it very much.

What about you?
