This series revolves around prayer, and more specifically the meaning and the power of prayers. This topic is important to new believers and mature believers alike. If we are being honest, we have all wondered whether God hears our prayers, whether He is listening, and sometimes even wondered if our prayers matter.
We share some very personal experiences both with church and with prayer, and we hope that they will be meaningful to you. This is our journey and we are so blessed to share it with you.
As a child, my Mom did the “Now I lay me down to sleep” prayer but we didn’t have discussions about God or the bible. In our house, we do have more conversations and my husband says prayers with our children every night. Thank goodness he does that because I am not as diligent. At least not with my children. I prayed every once in awhile but I didn’t start praying daily until my Mom was sick and was basically dying. Then I prayed every day for God to end her suffering. And he answered my prayers. So now I pray and thank him.
