Pray.....

Sometimes prayers get answered in a way you would never expect.
I have been thinking about so many things as of late since I have been home from Africa,
one thing in particular.
(It is amazing how emotional I become every time I even think of Africa)

I have been praying and pondering trying to find an answer I needed.
Guidance and peace.
Today I was reading an article that actually had nothing to do with what I have been praying for,
but miraculously there was my answer before me.

I felt it in my heart...I swear my heart smiled and then came the peace.
Amazement and gratitude came over me as I internalized what had happened.

I believe I was expecting my answer to come to me as I was talking to Kris or maybe even while I was doing dishes.
Never would I have expected it the way it came. But then, I am glad it didn't. I am so glad it came the way it did because I almost felt as if it was there only for me...where I could read it over and over if I ever doubted. It is there in black & white for me to actually see.

Prayer is such a special gift. One that I feel so grateful to use every single day!
