For some, "prayer changes things" might seem like a "dah" statement, but for me, I had to learn from experience that prayer actually does change things!
I saw it with my food first--God changed what I could not change for myself and then sooo many other things. Experience has been my best teacher. From my children to my husband to my job, everything in my life improved when I got on my knees and prayed for God's will, power, love and strength.
I prayed fervently, BELIEVING and expecting that God would answer. I knew that He would IF my petitions were in line with His will and purpose for my life. That's a big IF. I started reading the Bible and learned about Jesus, and started trying to follow His example in my little part of the world.
The more I learned, the more I was able to surrender my own will, along with my selfish ambition and my pride. It wasn't always easy, but I have seen that God blesses the humble and meek.
