A Prayer For
A Prayer For: Real, Prayable Prayers for the Moment You Are In
Sometimes you do not need an article about prayer; you need the words to pray. When someone you love is sick, when surgery is in the morning, when the job or the money or the marriage is on the line, when anxiety will not quiet down and you do not know how to begin, you just need to talk to God, and it helps to have someone start the sentence with you. That is what these pages are for. Each one gives you a genuine, warm prayer you can pray out loud as it is or make your own, a few plain words on how to pray it, and the real promises of God's own Word underneath, all of it pointing to the One who actually hears: Jesus. You do not have to pray perfectly. You only have to be honest and turn toward Him. He is already listening.
