prayers...



Got this from Pams post sa FB. The broad aspects of praying. And the time God answers or not. And the fact you have to put in your effort and just can't pray and pray until nothing much really happens. I've noticed that some are fairly answered. And some not so quite and even scared me for a while and stop praying. Because the opposite was answered a totally not meant to be moment. It was for someone near and dear to me. It was a couple that has been together for ages, only to marry someone else. In this scenario destiny took its course ultimately. Praying and living in his glory is what being a christian literally means. Even though how much we wish and control the situation it cannot happen without the great supreme being saying it's ok to. Finally, thanking God for all the blessings. He truly love us all.

Happy Memorial day everyone.

I agree...However, the word PRAY as it is defined by the dictionary is as follows:

Definition of PRAY
transitive verb
1: entreat, implore —often used as a function word in introducing a question, request, or plea <pray be careful
2: to get or bring by praying
intransitive verb
1: to make a request in a humble manner
2: to address God or a god with adoration, confession, supplication, or thanksgiving
See pray defined for English-language learners »
See pray defined for kids »
Examples of PRAY
There's little else to do now but hope and pray.
The minister said, “Let us pray.”
He prayed that they would have the strength to go on.
He prayed that he would find a parking spot.
Origin of PRAY
Middle English, from Anglo-French prier, praer, preier, from Latin precari, from prec-, prex request, prayer; akin to Old High German frāga question, frāgēn to ask, Sanskrit pṛcchati he asks
First Known Use: 13th century

Which is why, most of us PRAY when we petition for something...Maybe, we should just use the word COMMUNICATE with GOD for other purposes other than praying...The only difference is that prayer is not used when you want to request or petition from an ordinary human being other than GOD..

Elz,

Thanks for giving us the complete detailed meaning of "prayer". Right now i just need a prayer to find my cell phone. Last i seen it is in church. Went to get my communion bread and just left my bag there and that was the last time...

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little pray for you
While combing my hair now,
And wondering what dress to wear now,
I say a little prayer for you




within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.
