Sometimes avalanches have been started by a skier just shouting a few words. It only needs a small amount of snow to be disturbed by that shout, and soon thousands of tons of snow will be thundering down the mountainside. In the same way a few words spoken to God our Father in Jesus' name can set off an "avalanche" of God's power in any part of the world. Even when we think our prayers are small and weak, God can use them if we trust in Him, because He is so powerful.

Note: Today (May 6, 2010) is the National Day of Prayer in the U.S. Please join folks from around the country in prayer. "The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in Him." (Nahum 1:7) In proclaiming this the National Day of Prayer, President Obama wrote, "I call upon the citizens of our Nation to pray, or otherwise give thanks, in accordance with their own faiths and consciences, for our many freedoms and blessings, and I invite all people of faith to join me in asking for God’s continued guidance, grace, and protection as we meet the challenges before us." Please prayer for our city, county, state, and federal leaders.

Praying this morning for our nation. Thanks for this post - part of my Scripture reading for the morning included Psalm 29:4 "The voice of the Lord is powerful, the voice of the Lord is majestic."
