Let us Pray..

Let us Pray...let us have a conversation with God, let us speak to him as a child would his father...Isn't it lovely to bond , have cherished togetherness, private moments with our Lord God??Those of us who weather the storms know how bless we are, every time...we call out and He responds...praying means that we are never alone.... ....we belong ........ .. 

Marie-,  she believes in the miracle of prayers.....Each time, someone prays for her...she feels so cherished and blessed....She totally agrees with this good brother..who leads the Alpha course...that there is great happiness, being prayed for...Marie remembers the  many times she  asked for prayers, and parish priests;  friends in her prayer group had always, always responded...and she is ever so grateful...because those prayers had added strength and brought God to her side....

Like Nicky Gumbel, Marie too prayed for so many, many things........she had been disappointed when prayers went unanswered but looking back now, she realises .. there were more ticks than empty spaces......there were plenty of  angels, plenty of love and people who cared so much for her, so really, she is blessed indeed......but of course...if she could have space to plant her fruit trees....have the privacy of her own garden....

full of  beautiful yellow roses...if  the heavens could open and more than enough flow in to survive without relying on a salary.... etc...etc...hooh! what a joy...but she guess, God has his reasons for not answering those prayers......yeah, she could almost see His amused smile......and hear His gentle laughter.....Nah, she is not so obsessed now...believe it or not, Alpha has a hand in this new awareness.....God knows best..and she  fully trust and rely on the direction and providence of  her Lord God... She has faith in the goodness of her God...
