THANKFUL FOR PRAYER

Today I am inclined
To be thankful for prayer of any kind

For we never know how a prayer…any prayer
might help someone when times are tough…

In the words of Meister Eckhart

If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you
that thank you is enough

And oh how we join in with answered prayers. When I prayed for a cousin, who was in dire straits, she told me later on, though I wasn’t there but far away, she says she saw me…what does prayer do? Does it bring us straight to the throne of God, even by a loved one’s bedside? My cousin said she saw me laughing and trying to get past the nurses. I prayed hard and the Lord let her live one more year! True!
