Colossians 4:12–13 What and How to Pray

"Epaphras, a member of your own fellowship and a servant of Christ Jesus, sends you his greetings. He always prays earnestly for you, asking God to make you strong and perfect, fully confident that you are following the whole will of God. I can assure you that he prays hard for you and also for the believers in Laodicea and Hierapolis." (NLT)
 
Here's another model of what and how to pray. What: ask God to make our loved ones strong and perfect, fully confident of following the whole will of God. (Isn't that what gives peace?) How: earnestly, even at times agonizing over those for whom we pray. How earnestly are you praying for those in your world?
