PRAYERS CAN'T BE ANSWERED
UNLESS THEY ARE PRAYED
by HELEN STEINER RICE
GAMES CAN'T BE WON UNLESS THEY ARE PLAYED,
AND PRAYERS CAN'T BE ANSWERED UNLESS THEY ARE PRAYED.
SO NO MATTER HOW BUSY OR CROWDED YOUR DAY,
MAKE IT A PRACTICE TO TAKE TIME TO PRAY,
AND NEVER START WONDERING IF GOD HEARD YOUR PRAYER
OR IF HE IS ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR CARE.
BUT INSTEAD OF A CROWN HE SENDS US A CROSS,
AND INSTEAD OF RICH GAINS WE ARE MADE POOR BY LOSS.
BUT GREAT IS OUR GLADNESS AND RICH OUR REWARD
IF WE TRUST THE JUDGEMENT AND WILL OF THE LORD.
"WHATEVER YOU ASK IN MY NAME, I WILL DO IT,
THAT THE FATHER MAY BE GLORIFIED IN THE SON;
IF YOU ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME, I WILL DO IT."
