Our family could not meet together as we usually do, so we arranged to meet on zoom, and we would have a quiz, this we did. The wonders of technology ,it was fun, I didn't cheat, and of course my wife and I, didn't win, in fact we came last. It was nice to see the family, but before we signed of ,I reminded them that I pray for them each day. In James 5 v 16 we have these words,' Pray for one another', very important that we pray for one another, the apostle Paul encouraged the saints at Ephesus, to keep on praying for all the Lords people 6 v 18, and in 1 Timothy 2 v 4, we have the charge to Timothy to pray ' for all people'. It was Alfred Lord Tennyson who wrote the following poem.
More things are wrought by prayer,
Than this world dreams of.
Wherefore , let thy voice rise like a fountain for me night and day.
For what are men better than sheep or goats.
That nourish a blind life within the brain,
If, knowing God, they lift not hands of prayer,
Both for themselves and those who call them friend?.
For so the whole round earth is everyway,
Bound by gold chains about the feet of God.
