Facebook Friends Are Not About Me

​Have you ever thought that "God has given you a unique group of friends to influence. He has given you the privilege to make a difference in their lives through prayer. No one else can minister to this specific group of people. God has entrusted them to you. What an awesome privilege and trust!"1


Perhaps the facebook friends that God has given us are not about us. Perhaps one of the reasons God allows us to be friends with them is to pray for them. In Using Facebook as a Ministry Tool, I talked about using your friends list as a prayer list, but Prayrlist is a tool that does all the organization for you. 

"Prayrlist is an interactive application to help you pray regularly and consistently for your friends on Facebook. (It can even help you pray for friends not on Facebook.) is meant to help you make a difference in your world through prayer! It helps you pray for your "friends and at the same time build a valuable spiritual discipline in your own life. It organizes your friend list and automatically serves you a unique prayer list each day based on your Facebook friend list."2

It's a free tool. All you need to do is log on to PrayrList and sign in with facebook. Then you decide how many friends you want to pray for a day. It breaks it down for you in terms of how many friends you pray for a day determines how fast your get to pray through your whole list of friends. What a fun thing to be able pray for everyone on your list every year, or a few times a year.
