Who is reading this? A 75 yo today (today is my birthday) woman dealing with the effects of chemotherapy on my body. Please pray for strength, and peace for me during the rough time.

You start the day looking for Biden gaffes and end up on the power of prayer.

When you pray to God and ask for the answer as “ if it is your will” or “ God’s will be done”, you can be at peace with whatever the answer is because it’s out of your control anyway. The peace occurs in releasing your will and accepting Gods will. His answer may be a yes, a no, or that you need to wait. He works toward the good of those who trust him. He also never promised that nothing bad will happen . The rain falls on good and bad people equally.

A great man i know...in heaven for many years now...said most of the times we pray out of compassion because we see a need...but sometimes we pray by revelation...knowing God has placed the exact petition in our hearts that meets the need for that situation and moment in time. Great wisdom ❤🙏

C.S. Lewis such a scholar and treasure.

There is a difference in praying for what you have already been promised, and praying for something that you cannot know for sure based on the Bible. Eg. I do not doubt that if I repent that I will be saved, it would not be a compliment to God to add 'if it be thy will' to such a prayer. The Bible already tells us that it is God's will that all be saved... The same is true for healing and deliverance, receiving guidance, receiving wisdom. There are some conditions though, we need to ask for these things without a double mind and in faith (James 1). Also, we need to forgive.

Keeping HOPE alive by praying daily.  It's the only way to get through this messy thing we call life.

God bless C.  S Lewis and the souls who keep him alive. Amen

You cannot pray for the sick unless the view you have in the end is their recovery #thatsthetruthtruth

The fireplace and crackling was a wonderful addition. Thank you for making and sharing this video uploader. 💚 ☺️

He was a wise man. I read "The Chronicles of Narnia" when I was 10 years old and it had a great impression on me.

God bless you whoever posted this gem☦

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.

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

For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

GOD does answer prayer. We too often forget that "No" is an answer, as well as "Yes" and "Wait." He tells us we have to forgive and believe and also not to make sinful, completely selfish requests.

Great talk from C.S. here.  Such a marvelous way of encapsulating his observations and logical analysis. And enjoyed hearing it in his own voice.

Jesus gave us a perfect example of how to pray. But the majority of us pray like “lord give me this grant me this I need and want this is my life” a lot of it reflects what the world considers good and often times forget that time matter our bodies belong to God.
We focus on things that is ultimately not beneficial to our lives. We aren’t grateful and we don’t bless his name. We don’t say let his will be done. We are so self centered and pray with a motive that is ugly to God. And then we say prayers aren’t effective. We have no faith. We are so selfish. We test God. We don’t obey his word. We don’t seek his kingdom. But we expect his blessing

The hospital experiment would also be invalid because naturally all hospitals already have multitudes of people praying for patients 24/7.

Wow it’s hard to find his voice online! You could say “Original” or in his own voice. THANK YOU
