Yes, it's possible for God to intervene based on prayer, though we'll never know if He did or whether He meant it to work out that way in the first place. But prtayer atunes us to Him, and that's more important than getting our desire.Mannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15396201693030286919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100862372880209397.post-66793195116655220572014-03-30T12:34:35.533-07:002014-03-30T12:34:35.533-07:00Praying for you and yours always, Victor.

Right Victor?

Martin once put this into perspective for me. He said, at the end of the day we are trying to build a relationship with God. He challenged us to look at our earthly relationships ... are there any where we are totally silent? Any where the only thing we do is ask for things? Of course not. So then how would we expect to build one with God by not talking to Him, or only talking to Him to ask Him for something?<br /><br />God Bless you.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11166363205001461183noreply@blogger.com
