Words of Hope
Prayer Power
1999 was a tough year for many Americans. Political, business and spiritual leaders were forecasting terrible times for our world. They predicted global financial collapse.
Due to difficult circumstances, I sought out a spiritual life mentor. At our first session, I think I talked non-stop for 59 minutes.
My new mentor said: “I would like to see you every two weeks. Next time we meet please tell me how you pray.”
Now, for nearly 20 years, prayer is a fresh learning experience. Personal prayer is precious and valuable to me.
It is not so much prayer changing my circumstances as prayer changing me so that I can face the challenges life presents me.
Writing Words Of Hope these past three years has been joy and inspiration to my soul. I look forward to seeing the photo my brilliant partner, Cory James, selects to bring life to my words.
