On Prayers.
Wednesday, 20 January 2010

I know novenas are supposed to be prayed for nine days. I pray mine more than nine. If prayers are like vitamins that we could take everyday, my prayers are not just like prenatal multivitamins that one should take for just a certain time. Prayers should be like multivitamins. Me? As much as possible, I do it everyday. And I am doing it for more than two or three years already. More than nine days, more than 365 days. Imagine how much blessings I have received the past two or three years. Imagine how many prayers have been answered, how many moms had happy, healthy, and safe pregnancies (as a matter of fact, one of my inaanak will celebrate her first birthday soon, and I am a godmother of another one). Now I only have two people in my baby-list. I have faith that it will be granted soon. Every prayer will be answered. Don't get me wrong. I don't pray only because I need something. But prayer itself is a need.

Adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication. The ACTS format that Mrs. E in my elementary days have taught us. I still remember that. And the PUSH (Pray Until Something Happens) that I learned, through the years, works well.

I am not perfect. I have my flaws, I have my weaknesses. That's one of the many reasons why I pray. And I thank God for every scenario that brings me down to my knees, whether it's a call for help or thanksgiving. Every Amen is music to my ear.
