When you think ‘Prayer Warrior’, what kind of person do you picture? A pastor on his knees by the altar? An old woman with grown children and nothing else to do?
When I think ‘Prayer Warrior’, this is the person who comes to my mind! This is Esther, and her gift is prayer. Esther has accepted the call that many of us often ignore, she prays consistently for others. Esther has a beautiful heart of compassion for those who are hurting, a head for remembering them, and a faith that believes what the Lord has said. She has a long prayer list in her head, and she asks how people are doing long after the prayer needs have been made known. There are some people Esther has spent years praying for, and she has seen fruit from her labor! She is a beautiful encouragement to those she keeps on her heart, and she is a beautiful warrior!
She has blessed our family by faithfully praying for Mike's brother, Bryan, for years. It has been a real encouragement for him to know that she cares and continues to uplift him in prayer. She is a blessing in so many ways. She is a beautiful warrior. Great choice!!
