Praying and Interceding

Hi folks,

I wonder where January went! As I write I can see blue sky… very nice! This weeks Sunday@thePub is meeting at the Briar Dene Whitley Bay, if you are 18 and over then you are welcome to join us. We meet at 8.00pm and tend to leave about 9.30.

This weeks reflection comes once again from The Northumbria Community and its rule of life.

These words are particularly challenging in these uncertain times when food poverty is a real issue for many in and around where we might live, as well as the bigger picture issues of war and injustice that face many on a daily basis.

There are no straight forward answers for some of these issues, but we can stand with them in prayer and intercede for them. And maybe the issues that we see all to readily around us through food poverty is an issue that we can directly be involved with… interceding through our prayers and actions of donating food, writing to our local MP or other such things that raise the awareness of some of these issues. 

So how do you pray and intercede for such things? What is the difference between prayer and interceding? What are the issues that you are concerned for? 

God bless,
