Isn’t it amazing how prayer works?  Sometimes it feels like God is so far away, and that he doesn’t care about our humble plights here on earth.  And yet, He does care!  We don’t always get what we want, but He knows what we need.

Yesterday, I went to the Women in Prayer time at my church.  We’ve been really struggling with Noah’s sleep, but after 10 months, I’m pretty used to it.  So, I casually mentioned that we are still having problems, and one of the women prayed for us.  Last night, Noah only woke up once and even then only cried for about 30 seconds!  Praise God!

Now, I know that this might not be the end of all our sleep issues, but it reminded me this morning that God is affected by our prayers.  He wants what is best for us.   Sometimes, that is going through a trial that He wants us to learn from.  Sometimes, it is a good night’s sleep.

Sola Deo Gloria.
