God Responds

     There is a phrase that is sometimes used in Christian circles that we "watch over one another in love", but what does that really mean to us? For some it may mean taking food over to folks who are having a rough time. Or sending a card. Or knitting a prayer shawl. Or going to visit. But for how many of us, does watching over one another in love mean praying?
    For the prophet Habakkuk, he saw that his people were deeply hurting so he stood for them in prayer. He cried out to God on their behalf, until God responded in a powerful way.
    What if we were Habakkuk's for our communities. What if we truly watched over one another in love, by continually being in prayer until God responds? How could hearts and lives be changed?
