Prayer

So I'm reading a book and I decided to implement some of the things that are in it.  I decided to start praying with the kids whenever something goes on in the day.  Hannah was really upset, which is something that happens, and I decided to ask her if she wanted to pray.  She said no, and I asked if she wanted me to pray, and she said yes.  I prayed for her to have the joy that only comes from the Lord, and a minute or so after the prayer, she was SO much better.  She was happy and not the least concerned about whatever was bothering her before the prayer.  Awesome!  I just keep thinking that the only way I can introduce them into a life infused with constant prayer, is to infused their life with constant prayer.  Who knew?

  1. I so wish I'd thought of that when raising you. I knew to pray and prayed for you--A LOT!!--but I never stopped what I was doing to pray with you. I wish I knew then what I know now.
