Customer Reviews
Prayer works and it’s good.
I actually have the real book itself that I got from Amazon last year and here’s what I have to say about the book and that is I firmly believe that prayer works in many ways. And I understand clearly that God does in fact answer prayers but the answers might come in different ways.
1. Yes.
2. No.
3. Not yet. And there’s another thing I have to remember and that is I can’t expect my prayers to be answered right away because it’s a process and I have to be careful of what I pray for. And if I get the feeling that my prayers aren’t being answered at all. Well I have to keep in mind on a number of things.
1. Remember the parable that Jesus Christ taught. The parable of the persistent friend at night.
2. Remember these words from the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. “Jesus, I trust in you.”
3. If I’m surrounded by people who don’t believe in prayer and haven’t prayed before, I should keep my distance from them and avoid them.
4. Be connected with people who believe in prayer like at church and at Catholic youth groups and even at a Catholic retreat center.
5. My mom has always said that I have a special gift and that gift is prayer and it’s a gift from God and that’s something that I can’t forget.
