On the sidebar you may notice a link for the e-mail letters.to.jesus@hotmail.com. So this may be the stupidest idea I've ever had. My thought was what would happen if people had a place to e-mail anonymous letters to Jesus just to put down their thoughts. Those e-mails could be posted, from time to time, here and then they could be prayed about and other readers could give encouragement.
Anyways, feel free to e-mail away.

I kinda like the concept of corporate prayer and encouragement. Only I'm not too sure I, personally, would be comfortable sharing my conversations with Jesus over the internet. Maybe I'm just lame ('cause I did write a blogpost last summer about how I think sometimes Christians' conversations with each other about what they should pray for, should just BE the prayer). But I feel like I'd be a lot more likely to say to someone on the web, "Hey, can you pray for this for me?" than to actually PRAY for it and mail it . . .
yeah I don't know I guess I saw it as less of a prayer and more just a way of questioning and promoting dialogue.
In a counseling class once there was a lot of discussion as to the benefits of writing someone a letter even if you never intended to give it to someone...just to get out your thoughts.
My thought was just to have a place where people could vent frustration or questions to Jesus in an open way and then realize through the feedback of others that maybe they're not alone.
your name isn't Carl, is it? Thanks for stopping by my blog holmes.
