t is hard to believe that it is already June and that we are halfway through 2026. For many, thoughts maybe turning towards holidays. I wonder where you will be going and what sort of thing you might do whilst on holiday. I have been using the Lectio app on my phone to enable me to have a daily time of prayer and reflection, Whilst on holiday, sat out in the sun under the palm trees, listening to the waves breaking on the beach and I do like how it is structured. Once I have listened to the daily study, I then play a piece of worship music to close off my time of prayer. It is a structure that we can all potentially adopt. P.R.A.Y. Pause – settle yourself Reflect – on a Bible verse Ask – Offer up your prayer requests Yield – offer yourself to God’s calling for the day I wonder if you might consider doing this? Would you like some help in starting this? Sometimes when I say, “I’ll pray for you,” I wonder if people hear it the wrong way… Like it’s pressure, like it’s judgment, like it’s me trying to push something onto them. But the truth is much softer than that. When I say I’ll pray for you, it’s because I don’t always have the right words. I don’t always have the power to fix what you’re going through… I don’t always know how to carry your pain the way you deserve. But I care. I care enough to sit quietly and think of you to hold your name gently in my heart to whisper a hope for your healing when you can’t find it yourself. So when I say, “I’ll pray for you,” please know I’m not trying to change you. I’m not trying to convince you. I’m just loving you in the only quiet way I know how. Rob
