i spent a day reading out of a far country. as i was reading, one of the prayers in the book stood out because it's similar to what i've been praying for this year. at the start of 2013, i made the commitment to pray for one thing, every day-- trusting that God will do great things. it might take days, it might take years, maybe even a whole lifetime, to see what God has planned.
'i'll stand in the gap for christopher. i'll stand until the victory is won, until christopher's heart changes. i'll stand in the gap every day, and there i will fervently pray. and, Lord, just one favor, don't let me waver. if things get quite rough, which they may, i'll never give up on my son, nor will you. though the enemy seeks to destroy, i'll not quit as i intercede, though it may take years. i give you my fears and tears as i trust every moment i plead.' - a. yuan
