"Lord, I Lift Your Name On High!"

I Believe in the power of prayer!
 

All of my life, I have prayed when things got tough. The Lord didn't seem to always answer me, but now I know He has. I have had many prayers answered that I can be sure of. You see, my daughter and my new husband, never got along from the time I married him. They fought all the time....and she was only 2 1/2 years old when we got married. It got worse as time went on. By the time she was 13, we felt we had lost her. She had been to see so many doctors, I couldn't keep count. It hurt me so deeply, that before I knew it, I was suffering from deep depression. I had no idea what was going on, but I was scarred. I didn't think there was a God. I wasn't sure of heaven or hell but I knew I didn't want to die, because I was afraid I would find nothing!

I knew that something had to be done, but I was NOT going to go see a doctor. I didn't believe in them anymore. I started to pray. All the time. I asked God, (who I barely believed in at that time), to help me. Slowly I came back to reality. But the nightmare was not over. For several years, I had been getting sick and did not know what it was. Turned out, I was having panic attacks. I started to pray again. Now I don't have them at all. I never took any drugs or stayed in any hospital to get well. The Lord did it all for me Himself. I was actually told by a psychiatrist one time that I was very lucky to have pulled myself out. I think I'm lucky for having the faith I have. That's all.

My daughter is now 23 and lives in Massachusetts. She has told my husband that she is so sorry for what she had done. They still don't get along like I wish they would, but we haven't given up yet. I still pray for her all the time. God, in His own time, will help her. I'm sure of that, because I believe in the power of prayer!
 

If you have a prayer request, feel free to e-mail me with it and I will put you on my prayer list.
God Bless you all!


 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray,
believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
Mark 11:24
