藉祷告与人接触
，我们常常都可以藉着祷告来到神的面前，一天中任何时候你都可以与主相聚。
约翰福音17章的祷告是圣经中其中一个最为人知的祷告，在那里耶稣为你和为我祷告。看见祂伸出手来接触我们，这是何等大的鼓舞，祂为我们的祷告生活立下了多么美好的典范。
很多基督徒和教会都会定期收到代祷事项。为邻居或为其他在你生命中的人祷告，不论是为特别的事祈求或祈求得到一般性的福气，是参与主事工的一个很好的方法，而我更希望你能成为祷告的先锋。与人接触和问问他们：“我可以怎样为你祷告？”，往往正是他们最需要听到的话。参与神的使命不一定表示需要迁往别的地区或国家，你也可以就地在你身处的社区做宣教士呢！
很多信徒往往感到惊讶，有些似乎没有宗教信仰的人，如果有人问他们能否为他们祷告，他们是往往会愿意接受的。与别人一起祷告提醒他们，不单有你看见他们，而神也看见他们呢。
主啊，你伸手接触我，求你帮助我们也伸手接触其他人。求你赐我眼睛看见需要代祷的邻舍——好叫你的教会能够增长和你的子民能够合而为一。阿们。
约翰福音 17:20-23
20“我不但为这些人祈求，也为那些因他们的话信我的人祈求，
21使他们都合而为一；正如你父在我里面，我在你里面，使他们也在我们里面，叫世人可以信你差了我来。
22你所赐给我的荣耀，我已赐给他们，使他们合而为一，像我们合而为一。
23我在他们里面，你在我里面，使他们完完全全地合而为一，叫世人知道你差了我来，也知道你爱他们如同爱我一样。
Reaching Out with Prayer
"I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you." - John 17:20-21
Our calling—our mission—starts with prayer. God works powerfully through prayer, and you can always go to God in prayer. You can spend time with the Lord any time of the day.
In one of the best-known prayers in the Bible, Jesus prays for you and me in John 17. What a comfort it is to see him reaching out to us. And what a role model he is for us in our life of prayer.
Many Christians and churches receive prayer requests regularly. Praying for neighbors or others in your life, whether for a specific request or a general blessing, is a great way to participate in the work of the Lord. But I also want to encourage you to be a leader in prayer. Reaching out to others and asking "How can I pray for you?" can be exactly what people need to hear. Joining God's mission doesn't necessarily mean moving to a different region or country; you can be a missionary right in your own neighborhood!
Many believers are often surprised that people who don't seem to be religious will often welcome prayer if they are asked. Being a part of prayer with others reminds them that they are seen not just by you but also by God.
Lord, you reached out to me; help me to reach out to others. Give me eyes to see my neighbors in need of prayer—that your church may grow and your people may be one. Amen.
