Grateful unless it was done in an insulting way like JS has said.

If someone says it to me, I'm usually amused.

I can't remember an instance besides when I was leaving for college my sort-of girlfriend's mom said she was praying that I'd be okay and transition well. She repeated it the next several times I saw her. I was appreciative of it, but more appreciative of the stuff she did for me when I came back to visit the first few times.

If someone randomly said, "I'm praying for you", I'd ask what they were actually praying for.

As Ken Medema puts it in one of his songs,

"Don't tell me I've got a friend in Jesus...
Without showing me first, I've got a friend in you."

What?! People say that?! Nobody's ever said they were praying for me...
Now I'm sad...
