You have a refreshing outlook on prayer. A far cry from the "name it / claim it" jargon we here so much about, today. I look forward to reading more posts from you.

In Christ,
Billy.

So I was privileged enough to receive a copy of Fox Faith's "The List" DVD. Decided to pop it in & from an entertainment perspective, I thought it was excellent. Relieving to see a faith based film with an amusing plot.

More than anything though- I couldn't help but sit back and reflect on the power of prayer. The movie really portrays it well as the main character, although not following the lord during most of the movie, struggles through many hardships and difficult decisions.. Many of which lead to further complications. All the while, the ones closest to him rely heavily on prayer....

I'm not going to spoil any endings, but after the movie- I really just reflected on the fact that prayer does change lives. Even though the outcome of a situation may not be exactly what is planned or hoped for- God always acknowledges our persistence in prayer; because of that I think we are awarded with peace & better understanding of his will.

So, I just thought I'd share that with you guys; always encouraging to be spiritually refreshed & challenged.

If you get a chance, I'd definitely recommend checking out the movie- it was worth the few dollars spent.
