Small changes put in the hands of God can create a ripple effect in our lives.

Dear Samuel (to her husband) as a mother … I felt I ought to do more than I had yet done. I resolved to begin with my own children and which I observed the following method: to talk with each of our kids apart one-on-one. So on Monday I talk with Molly on Tuesday I talk with Eddie on Wednesday I talk with Nancy and Thursday I’ll talk with Jackie on Friday I talk with Patty on Saturday with Charles.  

PRAYERS HAVE POTENTIAL BEYOND WHAT YOU CAN SEE

Never stop praying.
1 Thessalonians 5:17

Your prayers reveal how much you trust God!

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
Matthew 7:7

Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? Matthew 7:9-10

HOW DO YOU PRAY?

BE YOURSELF

TAKE TIME TO LISTEN

FOLLOW A PATTERN

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

PRAISE

Give us today our daily bread
Matthew 6:11

And when you pray, do not keep on babbling …. for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
Matthew 6:12

And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
Matthew 6:13

Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,

Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.

And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

2 Chronicles 7:14
