Prayer

Prayer is a wonderful gift from God. To know that he is there and listening to me gives me strength. I feel his power in my life as I pray. I recently read some advice about surviving deployment that advised to pray for your deployed spouse when you are missing them most. Reaching out to my Father in Heaven in prayer to bless my beloved, I feel the Holy Ghost buoying me up in the sea of loneliness. The power of prayer is real, and selfless prayer is even more so.

when I bow my head tonight
there'll be no me, myself, and I
just watch my wife and kids please Lord
that's all I ask for anymore
