Father...please in your mercy hear hesetmefree's prayer and give him the gift of empathy. While it may not have been a natural thing for him over the years, as he wants to grow in you...share with him this gift. Teach him the value of truly caring for others by allowing him to put himself in their shoes. Father...if it be in your will give hesetmefree the assignment of praying for others not himself for one hour a day on this site. As he is bombarded with the pain, fear, torments and concerns of the people of God...it will warm up his heart and grow the empathetic response that is the primary component of love. Asking for help from you for ourselves is both wise and meritable...but praying daily for others is the balm that develops Agape love for others and breaks our hearts of selfishness that we might be more malleable in service to you. Help hesetmefree to understand that there is no prayer answered that does not require some action on our parts, and guide him to the disciplined stance that will allow him to take consistent action in this way. In Jesus holy name...Amen!
