Of Faith and Prayer

Faith went for a minor surgery last Friday to correct a crooked bone in her nose. She went for the post-op review today and took out the 2 pegs that were stuck in her nose. She's feeling awful (bouts of giddiness and pain) and moaning a lot (ha, but she says blessed are those who "moan"), but that's part and parcel of the recovery process. The good thing is that she is definitely better now than 2 days ago! According to doc, she should be well in 2-3 weeks' time.

She will be on MC for the rest of the week, and will be going for another review this Saturday. Please keep her in your kind prayers, that God will heal her quickly and completely.

Speaking of prayers, I was very encouraged to see many of us come for the Corporate Prayer meeting yesterday.

I learnt recently that prayer should not only be a NEED, but a WANT. We should not only be praying because we need God to help us with something, but beyond that, we should WANT to pray! As in Economics' term, a "want" is defined as having a strong desire for something... can i urge us to have a stronger desire for prayer?

In line with this, the YPM is entering into a month-long of prayer and fasting for the Easter event in March. May God give me the want to pray!
