Prayer is so dear to my heart and necessary to my life. It is the lifeline to our Father, and has become a running conversation through my days and nights. The source of strength to live this life... You KNOW this is a subject I was taught by example, which makes all of prayer more meaningful and real to me. When you see it lived it becomes a natural part of growing into it in your own life. And in the process, our own roots go down deeper in our faith, and prayer has increased my own faith in the God who has made it possible to come to Him with EVERYTHING!!<br /><br />Loved this Debbie!http://bitsandpieces-sonja.blogspot.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/09254831447887637714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-9672266323400427402010-12-07T09:00:41.248-07:002010-12-07T09:00:41.248-07:00That was excellently said.

Working in the prison brought me even closer to Him as I learned to talk more to Him through prayers. And despite not being able to see, He makes it known that He hears me [us] everytime. He shows me faith markers in this journey, time to time. Great post sister Debbie and it will be awesome to read others' perspectives about faith and prayers. Have a wonderful week.

I am following the Scripture and the Promises from Philippians 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. <br />AmenFelisol https://www.blogger.com/profile/12240191154632603841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-61830571596116015502010-12-07T00:06:19.160-07:002010-12-07T00:06:19.160-07:00Thank you so much for sharing your heart again and...Thank you so much for sharing your heart again and for choosing this quote.

I felt a deep peace like I have not in a long time. Despite our circumstances and the seriousness of situations we are praying over - there was peace and joy! The kids were so calm after I prayed too - they felt it with me. It was a huge blessing to us and we know not only did God hear our prayers He will answer them perfectly!<br /><br />Love you!<br />JillAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17247824698674815568noreply@blogger.com
