This past Sunday the Stake President spoke of the importance of prayer. He asked us:

1- Are you praying?

2- Do you understand how dangerous the world is?

Kim was told that it bites AFTER it was put in her hand =)

He talked about the necessity of praying and how we can't live without the constant guidance and help of our loving Father in Heaven. Recently my wonderful Grandpa posed this question to ponder,  "Is there a difference between 'praying' and 'saying your prayers'?"

I love reading in Alma 34 when it talks about crying unto the Lord. Praying isn't aimless speaking, it is counselling, pleading, laughing, crying, and so much more.

D&C 10:5 - Pray always, that you may come off conqueror; yea, that you may conquer Satan, and that you may escape the hands of the servants of Satan that do uphold his work.

D&C 25:12 - For my soul delighteth in the song of the heart; yea, the song of the righteous is a prayer unto me, and it shall be answered with a blessing upon their heads. 

The words of hymn 140 say it better than I can; I encourage you all to study the lyrics!!

My invitation to you all today is in the hard moments, in the good moments, in all the moments, pray. Pray for guidance, happiness, peace. Pray to give thanks. Don't forget to pray. 

God loves you and wants to hear from you always.

Have an excellent week!!
