Paul asks for prayer. Not as a sign of weakness - he's an apostle. But as a recognition that we all need intercession.
I've been praying for my pastor and my leaders differently since reading this. Not just 'bless them' but actually standing in the gap for them, asking God to work in their ministries and their hearts.
That's changed my relationship to church leadership. I'm invested now, not just sitting in the pews criticizing.
