The Power of Prayer

Christ dwells in us!  He wants to give us an abundant life, to fill us with joy and peace.  He desires our fellowship.  His words to us say "pray always."  The challenge has been made for us to spend 30 minutes a day with God:  10 minutes-memorizing scriptures, 10 minutes in the study of God's word, and 10 minutes in prayer.  We have been asked to pray the ACTS prayer - A adoration   C  confession  T thanksgiving  and S supplication.  For supplication, we could use our hand as our guide:  Thumb-pray for those far away physically or spiritually, Pointer Finger-pray for those who lead the way, Tall Finger-pray for those in authority, Ring finger-pray for those dear or close spiritually or physically, Pinkie-pray for those weak or sick.    This has been such a blessing in my life.  His words are so rich.   To God be the glory.  From Cheryl
