Everyone who has been reading my blog long knows that setting aside one day a week on the blog helps me to pray for your needs and for you to pray for one another!
That's why I was really excited to offer you this lovely prayer bowl from Tom and Karen Berry of PrayerBowls.com.
Karen had been very sick several years ago. Family and friends prayed for her, and even some strangers. One stranger prayed daily for Karen for over a year by placing her name on a card and placing it in a bowl as a reminder to pray for her. Karen liked the idea so much, that she made a distinctive bowl for herself and a few others. That's how PrayerBowls began.
They created these lovely ceramic bowls from Portugal to facilitate your praying for others. Isn't it beautiful? They actually have two styles and have provided one of each for our giveaway!
You simply write out the prayer for a specific person and place it in the bowl. I find that placing the bowl on our kitchen table makes it easy to remember to pray for them.
Here's how to enter to win:
