Ellyanna has been given an gift for interceding for others. If she hears in church or I tell her about a prayer request that's come on the etree, she's always quick to remember those people and "check in" on them. What has been a big blessing is that many of those she's prayed for have seen God's work in their lives--though she and I are learning that it's not always in the time frame we have in mind. I hope she learns this early and can have absolute faith that God hears and answers later on.
She prays for our special friends in Ukraine who are orphans--specifically Kristina and Pasha. And she prays for our Compassion kid, Jesus. She loves to pray for a man who has terminal cancer from church. And he is off treatment and getting better! She also prays for his wife and little boy, even making him cards and having me send them for her. She also prays for anyone she knows is sick--from having lice, or a cold, to an aunt with cancer. Recently she prayed for her aunt and uncle who's mother passed away suddenly. She regularly prays for her family...even that "Isaiah would be nicer to me."
