hooked on speed

Martins is a great place for the people prayer. It's been good the past few days to pray for every peson I see. I wasn't totally successful at remembering, but it's been pretty good these past few days. THe connection with Abba is strong when I am doing this consistently. And it places my heart in the right place with people.

I'm here at the Martins Starbucks, hanging out with my neice and four other 7th grade girls, planning a prayer group for Lakeshore middle school. Why? Because they went to camp and took Aarons challenge seriously to start a prayer group at school. Our goal... to get kids at school hooked on SPEED (students praying each n' every day). With frappacinno's in hand (mine is a strawberry), we try to focus the excitement so that something can actually be accomplished today. What fun! SPEED (the event) will not happen each n' every day, only Tuesday and Thursday at 7:10. But we hope to pass on a passion for prayer that will keep kids connecting with God each n' every day.
