Intercession

by Elisabeth Elliot

Intercession is the hardest work in the world--the

giving of one's self, time, strength, energy, and

attention to the needs of others in a way that no one

but God sees, no one but God will do anything about,

and no one but God will ever reward you for.

See Matt. 6:6 But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
