Looking for Practical Suggestions

I was challenged this morning by a friend's post on Hannah's prayer in 1 Samuel 2, and how she remembers the world beyond her own circumstances in her prayers. She's very honest about her own heartache too, but it doesn't end there. I was also reminded in the InTouch devotion yesterday that Hannah depended on God through prayer, that she was a great example of a woman of prayer.

I'm not good at looking at the bigger picture, but I think it's time I stretched myself. I hardly ever listen to the news, so am thinking that might be a good place to start - probably reading it online will simpler with the girls.

Any other suggestions of ways to think more broadly about the needs of others and remember their needs when I pray?
