Ironically, after my last post about not believing in prayer…I went to an event at my church that is all about prayer.
They are sending postcards inviting people to submit prayer requests anonymously through a web site…and letting people know that the church is praying for them.
The pastor asked for some people to come help address and stamp them…and then they’d all pray over them. I went to help with that as I still think it’s a good idea. While for myself, I don’t really believe in prayer or that there is power behind it…I will not begrudge someone who reaches out asking for prayer. I will admit that the studies of brain activity during deep prayer or meditation have shown interesting results/activity though.
