Then Pray...



'More things are wrought by prayer than any of us will ever know'
 from Bells of St. Mary

Inspired by this post



Are you sad?
Pray
Are you glad?
Pray.
Overcome with fear?
Pray.
Or sorrow's tear?
Pray.
Are you lonely?
Pray
Or loved by many?
Pray.
Are you 'poor in spirit'?
Pray.
Love; can you hardly bear it?
Pray.
Are you strong and able?
Pray.
Or sickly and feeble?
Pray.
Are your needs great?
Pray.
or have they been met?
Pray.
Do you long to
touch those far away?
Pray.
Or close by?
Pray.
Do you dread life's come-what-may?
Pray.
Are you weary today?
Pray.
...or suffering?
Pray.
or disappointed?
Pray.
Or grief-anointed?
Pray.
 Do you seek that which fully pleases?
Pray.
Do you long to be with Jesus?
 Then,
Pray.

Janet Martin~

 Philippians 4:6-7  
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
