Tonight I am in prayer for family members - one at the hospital, two on the road....I'm reminded of the nights I would come home from a date or from some late night school event to find my mother on her knees praying for my safety. There were times I had a "close call" while driving and she would be standing in the living room when I walked in asking, "What happened?". This was before cellular phones.....
I'd ask her how she knew and she always said that she'd been impressed to pray for my safety because I was in danger. She'd pray until a peace would fall on her and she'd know I was okay - then she'd wait for me to drive in the driveway. Never underestimate the power of prayer....
