Prayer IS a tool by which we care for one another. This morning I was reading Ephesians 4 (from which I think I'll use a verse for today's VOTD) and wouldnt you know - verses 25-32 also speak to your point! Excellent Comment!

So it was decided that we would try to focus on what God had given the bother and sister we were praying for, instead of his faults. So if we see that someone is spreading the gospel, we would pray that God would increase this gift; if its hospitality then we would pray that God grant this person with all he needs to fulfill his role, etc. It turns out that this way of praying makes us closer to one another and it binds us together in the cause of Christ. A Church that prays this way will be united, selfless and intimate.
