Prayer throws faith on God and God on the world.
Only God can move mountains, but prayer moves God
How to pray ~ really pray
It made me
peaceful 
"it kinda feels like a big weight was just lfted off of me."
How I did it: well, i found something i was really truely passionate about. and then i realized i didnt really need all the things i thought i did. i learned to be actually thanksful for the things i had, and to accept what i didn't. prayers are answered in the most misterious ways, but even though i will never understand them, i can at least try to accept them

God has been teaching me more and more about prayer
8 months ago
it is an amazing thing
the power we have through it
I have been surprised the things that have come to pass in my life the passed few weeks because of prayer… big and little things
God is not a gennie in a bottle that we can ask a wish of and get our hearts desire, but as we draw closer to Him, our will becomes His will and therefor the things we want are the things He wants, so when we ask for them we can have confidence that we will receive them. when we ask with confidence, we will receive.
John 15:7
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you.

it has been a special time for me, a mixed blessing in a was. Yes I came here to care for my sick daughter, but I also came to care for my grandchildren. I had very little time with my grandson when he was first born two months ago, and in the time since I have seem him last he as changed so much. The girls have also grown and are starting to spread their wings and become little ladies. Yet they are still young and need many things
It tears my heart to see them in pain, to see them hurting and crying. I want to do all in my power to help them, to fix their problem and help them grow.
I was reminded of this when I was looking over all the note of prayer going up for my family. God love us far more then we can even comprehend, and wants only the best for us. Just as our we will give our children what is best foe them when they as. so God wants to do the same for us
sometimes He is just waiting for us to ask
The great people of the earth today are the people who pray, (not) those who talk about prayer…but I mean those who take time and pray.

or I think He is…
I saw prayer answered that surprised me
what it was isn’t the point
the point is, is that God answers prayer
but so many time we/I ask and only half expect an answer
OK, I guess I do on the big stuff, but God care about the day to day little stuff too
we have a Big God who wants to give us Big things
and little things
for His Glory

how much power we really have when we pray, not because we can do anything, and not because we are speaking some magic spell or incantation …but because the God who formed us, that created the very air that we breathe, Is in control; and He want the best for us…wants to give us what is best for us, in the same way that a loving parent wants to lavish good thing on there children.
He’s just waiting for us to ask

You can do more then pray after you have prayed, but you can’t do more then pray until you have prayed.

Be sure to hold to your secret duty, keep that whatever you do.
The soul can not prosper in neglect of it. Apostasy generally begins at the closet door. Be much in fellowship with God, it is the trading that enriches the Christian. Let prayer be your key in the morning and the bolt at night. To fight against sin, it is best to fight on our knees.
Philip Henry
