![]() Do you pray? Do you believe in the power of prayer? I have looked at these two questions all day as I've tried to write this blog post... Harrison has been praying for at least two years at dinner time and just recently Mae has started saying grace in her style. Several times we have found that Madison too has sat in her high chair with her hands folded and head down... Praying for our family is key, essential, a choice, and our foundation. Teaching our kids to pray and to pursue God is our focus. I love this picture of Madison because prayer looks simple! Prayer is simple isn't it? Why is it then when we feel like we are standing in the middle of a storm we forget how to pray or the distraction consumes us? Thankfully, we have prayer warriors! The week we got Madison's diagnois my family got together and prayed, our church family got together and prayed, and even last night our Ramsey Christian church family came together and prayed! It goes on and on those that are praying. Praying for Madison, praying for our entire family. Does prayer work? Is there a God? Let me tell you YES! God loves you and yes this life will bring storms, but when the clouds are dark and the waves are strong get out of your boat and walk.... Prayer it is simple, life changing, and beyond comprehension. God can heal Madison! God is in control and Ryan and I trust him! We trust him more today than yesterday because we feel him. We feel God moving, changing, and focusing Ryan and I on his plan! We aren't perfect and there are days that the waves knock us down, but we get up and keep walking towards Christ. Prayer can change everything and we are blessed to have family and friends who believe this also. No matter where or what is going on in your life look past the waves and focus on God! One day the dark clouds will fade and the sun will shine. A dear friend of mine sent this to me today.... Worth reading:)
