I’ve made plenty of excuses why I do not pray more boldly. But I have very excuses why I don’t pray for my friends and acquaintances who are lost. My concern for their well being has been shallow in light of eternity. My self absorption idols distract me from a radical love that is described in the New Testament. Perhaps we are too comfortable in our faith, and we view telling others as optional.
“Jesus went about his ministry with a relaxed urgency.” - Greg Ogden, Transforming Discipleship
