FIRST-PERSON: My Prayer for Christmas
EULESS, Texas (BP)--My daughter-in-law just had her second baby girl on December 7. She is a gift from God. She was just over eight pounds and is beautiful.
FIRST-PERSON: Life’s limitless reach, Old Testament prayer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Much has been said about the tiny prayer out of 1 Chronicles 4:9-10, otherwise known as the "Prayer of Jabez." The first thing that I want to mention is that my family loves the "Prayer of Jabez." We believe that when followers of Christ pray Scripture [whether Old or New Testaments, mind you] we stand on solid ground. But what kind of prayer is this? Some have denigrated it into a "selfish prayer."
