prayer ministry update
It's going pretty well. I've broken it up so that eveyone gets prayed for in the span of a week. Mondays - starting pitchers, Tuesdays - infielders, Wednesdays - relief pitchers, Thursdays - outfielders, Fridays - management and coaches, Saturdays - baseball chapel, and Sundays - Christians I know of on other teams. So far I've only missed one day, but I made it up the next day, so none of these guys have been skipped. Sometimes the prayers seem to get a little repetitive or generic, but they're genuine, and that's what matters to GOD. Once in awhile I think, 'Okay, so this is all fine and good, but how long am I meant to keep doing this?' But for the most part it's becoming a habit and isn't so bad. (Although now that I've said that, I'm sure the devil will try to get after me.) I'm encouraged.And that's my ministry newsletter.

and now i better get going so as to not disappoint jesse crain, et al. that's one problem i have to figure out. often i don't think of it until just before bed, and that keeps me up even later. but i'll get the hang of it sometime.
i was just going to ask you how this is going. i'm glad you're keeping up with it.
i've found that it's easier to be consistent with prayer if you make a schedule like you have. it's harder to let a day go by when you realize that it will be another week before you pray for jesse crain again - although you could double up, but even then, you can't do it too many times.
and i think God will let you know when He wants you to do something else instead.
I liked your update and look forward to reading more. I love your perspective on the whole things and I really love that you are praying for believers on other teams as well.
