Praying for grace


Grace is one of the things we should pray for, says Yancey in his book Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference. Enjoy these words from page 280.

Rain by Antanas Sakalauskas

Grace descends as the gentle rain from heaven.  It does not divide, does not rank.  It floats like a cloud high in the sky, and the thirsty pray for it as desert nomads pray for rain.

Prayer for grace offers the chance for a deep healing, or at least a way to cope with what cannot be fixed.

    There are tears of identity rolling down my face as I read and read these words. How precious indeed are right words, carefully crafted into readable sentences that lift weary souls, lighten heavy hearts and leave behind the knowledge of the presence of Christ. Thank you
