2009.03.30 Monday Morning!

Top of the morning and all good wishes from Pilgrim Presbyterian Church - still located in the heart of Vinita, Oklahoma! For more than 126 years this congregation has served Christ throughout this area with an "Easter faith" - an all year 'round faith.

Behind this service and good effort lies the power of prayer!

Many people stop praying because they don't have time in their busy lives. Others give up on prayer convinced it does not work. Like anyting else of value, prayer requires intentional practice.

As you practice prayer daily, remember that God will never do anything you can do for yourself. Prayer is not simply unloading our tasks on God. Prayer is the means by which God enables us to do them for ourselves.

Prayer may not change circumstances, but it does change us so we may confront circumstances with new strength and a new ability to cope with them.

Prayer is a powerful means to change our lives. Set aside a time each day to practice it!

Go for it!
