prayer is the key

Does your prayer time seem a little lost on occasion? I know mine does. I know that God wants to hear from us. He expects us to show up and delights in the minutes we give solely to him. But once in a while it starts to feel a bit contrived and obligatory going through the motions.

In every issues, we often believe that to deal with it successfully we need to give the best prayer ever to God. Sound's easy, but in reality, prayer for everyone, is the hardest thing to do.

There was a time in my life, when I had nothing to run to but a Bible, given by an Old close friend of mine. My son got sick, and I don't have money to bring him into the hospital...I can't even buy him enough medicine...All I can do is cry to God, and faithfully believe that he would surely healed my son.

Without a single doubt in my heart, though I am aware that I don't deserve HIS gracefulness, He healed my son. It's a matter of test in my faith...and God did not look at my past mistakes not even with my present. He judge the sincerity of my heart that very moment.

I must admit, that I worry a lot, each time my son is not well. If my son would get sick for more than three days, my sleep would be terribly deprived. I would start to think what if my son had an awful desease, I can't afford to loose him. He is my greatest award, my greatest treasure. If he would be taken from me at a very early age, I don't know how am I supposed to survive.

Honestly, in my daily prayers, I always entrust to God, my son's life, even the hour of his death. Although, I know, that loosing my son would be the hardest part that could ever happen to me. As the adage goes: You don't realize how much you have until you don't have it anymore. I am glad, that God made me aware that I don't have money and all I have is God in my life. Because of that I can sincerely claimed that He is my son's medicine, He is my son's best Doctors, He is my son's healer. And at the very moment, the Lord never failed to show me HIS mercy.

My life is an open book to most people around me. I don't have a single right to even testify how God's shower His grace and mercy in my life. Many people knows, how bad, naughty, I must say, I am. But then, even if I lack faith, in one single area of my life, allow me to share with you guys, that God has forgiven me, even if I continued to disobey HIM. He still hears me when I cry for help, especially when its all about my son. Therefore, it isn't true, that when you continue to sin, you will no longer be heard. What matter's most is your willingness to change and draw yourself nearer to God.

enjoy the small things today for one day you might realize they were really the big things
