I do not pray enough for such lost souls and I will attempt to remedy that going forward.

It’s the best chance you have at winning that soul over for Christ.
It’s not necessarily going to be you who finishes the job of landing the fish, but your prayers helped him or her to take notice of the bait.
One co-worker laughed at my faith. She was 19 years old in 2009. Next July she, her daughter and son will be starting Fr. Joy’s Class to become Catholic’s. She started wearing her Miraculous Medal around the time that her husband was falling apart due to drug use. They split. Her son, Ryland, had a strange virus that kept him from being able to move his lower extremities. She asked me to help. Prayers started in a big way.
Holy hours for him. I sent her photos of the prayer wall with his name and challenge on it.
She was amazed that someone was in that chapel every minute of every day…praying.
After being shipped to Grand Rapids De Voss Hospital and spending just over a week there they were able to restore his legs, feet and toes. Movement came back. He since has fully recovered.
Mom has never forgotten the helplessness and misery she went through, nor the prayers from strangers in an adoration chapel.
God does get the last laugh.

Yes. It’s not about me. It’s about Him.
