The Power of Prayer

As we have went through our adoption process, we have prayed like we've never prayed before! We have prayed for our family, the adoption, and our child that God has blessed us with, just to name a few. After we received the referral of our son, we began to pray and thank God for all the blessings he has given us through this process. I began to think this....What if how I prayed through all this, I prayed that way every single day for other people?  What if I prayed with all my heart for my friends, my family, and for people in general?  I can say that I'm guilty of saying the whole, "God thanks for all our friends, our family, and god thanks for our blessings...AMEN!" A quick prayer that I've said in the past. If I took the time and energy that I've done through our adoption and spent time praying for people like I've never done before, what could happen? Could I see the lives of people changed, just like I've seen God change mine? Better yet what if we all would pray with every ounce of energy we have in our body, every single day for something., what could happen? I have seen the power of prayer through our adoption. I know that God can do anything (Eph 3:20). I just want to challenge myself as well as my friends and family that when we say our next prayer, whether it's for ourselves or for friends or family members that we PRAY BIG and with complete confidence that God can do ANYTHING!.....written by Jeremy Romine
