Feeling a burden to pray…..

This morning (like all mornings) I was listening to a local talk radio station for news, weather, etc, etc.   They were reporting that Britney (Spears) was admitted to UCLA Medical Center around 1 AM this morning.    At first I had a callous “again?” attitude, but then God prompted me to begin to pray for her.   Not only did I just send up my usual “be with Britney” type prayer…..God wanted me on my knees intercessing for this young lady at my Saviour’s feet!   I’ve never gone to my knees like that for someone in the media spotlight before…..what a humbling experience, but this post really isn’t about me……we need to be praying for these young people that have grown up in front of the camera and now their lives are falling apart!   Look at Britney Spears, in the past 4-5 years, she’s gotten married, annulled, gotten married, had 2 babies, divorced, been in and out of hospitals, rehab centers, been on numerous (reported) drinking and drug binges, etc. ….that is so sad!   I feel a real burden to pray for her, I know the Lord that can save her from the environment that she lives in!   And He is a mighty God that can lift her right out of the lifestyle that she is living in.  He’s done it for countless people before, and will continue until our Saviour comes back.
