WHAT I NEVER KNEW ABOUT PRAYER COULD FILL A BOOK

MY PRAYER JOURNEY WAS NOT AN EXPECTED TREK, BUT I LOOKED UP ONE DAY AND I HAD BECOME A PRAYER WARRIOR. CLEARLY, I WAS AN UNLIKELY CANDIDATE; I USED TO THINK.

I WAS RAISED IN THE LUTHERAN CHURCH AND WE DEEPLY PRAISED AND WORSHIPPED IN OUR ASSEMBLY. AS A CHILD AND A TEEN; THERE WAS TREMENDOUS SUPPORT TO MAKE SURE THAT I KNEW GOD'S WORD.

IF I TOOK ANYTHING AWAY FROM THAT PART OF MY JOURNEY; I WOULD SAY THAT IT WAS THERE THAT I LEARNED THAT GOD WAS REAL.

AT THE AGE OF TEN, I CAN REMEMBER SENDING UP PRAYERS FOR MY FUTURE THAT GOD ANSWERED.

I THEN DEVELOPED A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD BUT MY PERCEPTION OF PRAYER WAS THAT IT WAS ONLY TO BE A SINCERE FEW MOMENTS IN A QUIET PLACE.




OVER THE YEARS, THOSE CONVERSATIONS BECAME SHORTER AND SHORTER AND BECAUSE OF MY
REVERENCE FOR GOD; I DECIDED NOT TO WASTE HIS TIME WITH SMALL STUFF; JUST THE BIG PROBLEMS. SMILE.

IT LIKELY WOULD HAVE GONE ON THAT WAY; BUT SOME THINGS HAPPENED:


1, I GOT BORN AGAIN
2. I FOUND A WONDERFUL BIBLE BASED CHURCH AND BEGAN TO LEARN SO MUCH
ABOUT PRAYER.
3. I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE POWER OF PRAYER.
4. I NEEDED SOME THINGS TO CHANGE IN MY LIFE AND MY PRAYERS WERE NEEDED.
5. I FOUND OUT THAT PRAYING WAS FUN AND THAT I COULD PRAY THE PERFECT
WILL OF GOD; NOT ONLY FOR MY LIFE BUT FOR OTHER PEOPLE.
6. I GOT HOOKED TO PRAYING.




I BEGAN MY JOURNEY AND I FOUND OUT THAT WHAT I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT PRAYER COULD NOT ONLY CHANGE MY LIFE; BUT THAT IT COULD FILL A BOOK.


I'LL BE SURE TO TELL YOU MORE ABOUT IT, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THIS SITE IS ALL ABOUT.
