“Faith makes all things possible…Love makes all things easy” ~ Unknown

Today is the National Day of Prayer. In my opinion, the disappearance of prayer being allowed in public places, in schools and at ceremonial events makes it even more important to stop and observe this day. The founding fathers of our country used prayer to guide them, protect them, and strengthen their resolve, as they put into place the documents that helped to create our nation and our freedoms. Our society has strayed much too far from the basic foundation and principles that were put into place for the well-being of our country and ourselves.

Now, more than ever, prayer is needed, to guide our country. One does not have to regularly attend a church, temple, chapel, cathedral or synagogue in order to worship. Prayer is communication with our own God, heavenly father or Higher Being, in our own private way. It can be well expressed through music, singing, words, clapping, dancing or through quiet meditation.

There is an enormous amount of evidence, testimony, medical and scientific research that prayer has many benefits. Prayer relieves stress, anxiety, calms fears, and helps in overcoming problems such as addiction, relationship issues and health concerns.

On this National Day of Observance, take a few minutes, lighten your load and ask your Higher Being for help, understanding, protection, guidance and to hear your prayer. And remember to listen, too.
