Prayer is Awesome and Mighty
Prayer is so awesome it can quiet a room, quiet a stadium, quiet a sports field, quiet a concert hall, quiet a dining room, quiet a classroom. Prayer brings believers together, and many times non-believers together, out of respect for our Lord to quiet ourselves and give thanks.
Prayer brings calm, hope, and comfort to a whole giant arena the same as it does a tiny hospital room.
These intimate conversations we have with our God bring peace, unity, and togetherness. Prayer is that powerful, that awesome, that mighty.
