As I read Ann Voskamp's blog this morning she was talking about a time when there was a drought on the farm and they were in desperate need of rain in order for the corn crop to produce. It made me think of right now with the high temperatures and the little rain. As they watched the rain, that would once again miss them, fall in the distance her husband said to her,
"He hears us. He loves us. He has us. So whatever happens, He's good and we're good."
Some other statements she made about prayer were,
"We pray to the Lord knowing His answer is love."
"We pray to God to be prepared by God for a purpose of God."
"We don't pray to get more from God - we pray to become more in Christ."
"We pray because entering His presence is the answer to all our prayers."
"When your prayers look right into the face of Christ - every hopeless end turns into an endless hope."
