the three time rule...

A friend sent me a text message to say
that she'd been led to pray for me for the last two days. I'd
actually been having a difficult time and I feel very moved that
God would inspire someone to do that for me. Nigel Mumford in his
book
Hand to Hand: From Combat to Healing
writes, 'I
pray for particular people when they come to mind, and often find
later that there was a real need on that particular occasion. I
follow 'the three time rule:' when someone comes to mind three
times, I call or visit to see if something is wrong. Often I find
that God has communicated a friend's need.' The knots on a
Prayer Rope or Rosary Beads can be used to represent and remind us
of those for whom we want to pray.
