Most Christians consider prayer to be an important part of their faith lives, but do we ever think of the magnitude of the power of prayer? Newspapers or magazines oftentimes do stories on the "power of prayer," which is usually accompanied by a miraculous healing story that cannot be explained. It's easy to get desensitized by the many stories that float in and out of the news media and even through our church circles. The power of prayer goes beyond the flashy miracles of this world. The power of prayer is found in our daily lives.

The power of prayer can be found within our families. When we pray for our children, speaking words of love, we may be able to see a change in them in the way they act or treat their siblings. When we use prayer to give us strength in a situation unique to us, we may come out of that experience stronger and more faithful then before. When we use the power of prayer to change our hearts during the holiday season, we may feel an abundance of God's grace on Christmas morning.

Miracles happen every day through prayer. When we pray, we concentrate on love and the positive things that can come out of our lives no matter how bleak our situation. Christ's grace flows through this channel of communication, and we bring His unique and powerful love into the world in this way. The words of love we express in prayer may also appear in our daily interactions with our family and friends. Using positive and uplifting words can make the difference in the life of a peer or a child. Prayer can help us reach that.

During the holiday season, we have the opportunity to recommit our lives to prayer. Christ's entry into this world represents the greatest miracle in history, and we can honor His presence in this world by continually offering up our fears, desires and hopes to Him. We all have unique lives, but we all have the opportunity to serve Christ and our world by being a light for others. Prayer allows us to live a life of love that will in turn positively impact the lives of those around us.

Stop for a moment right now and say a prayer for your spouse or your children or a co-worker. The impact, whether you see it or not, is beyond our comprehension but you must believe it is having a positive impact.

Mark Arens, Motivational Speaker and Author of seven best selling children's books believes strongly in the power of words and their effect upon us, especially upon children. Visit this site to learn more More->http://www.thepowerfulword.com/index.html or http://www.thumbpeople.com/

  • The African Science of Death (Yamaya Cruz)
    I am amazed that even today, many people believe that African religions are all about silly superstitions and myths that cannot be validated. Slowly, we are beginning to understand many of the concepts of African religions through the science of quantum physics.

  • Asylum For The Spiritually Insane (Yamaya Cruz)
    These spiritual leaders are being torn apart by two opposing forces and eventually, they are going to go absolutely, completely crazy! It happens everyday, in all faiths and religions. Priest and spiritual leaders eventually become hypocrites because no one can live by two different sets of rules.

  • Aries Most Compatible Astrological Signs For Lasting Love Partners (Conrad Dane)
    Those born under the Aries astrological sign searching for true love may be having trouble finding someone who is truly compatible. With spiritual guidance and by researching the astrological signs most closely compatible to theirs, an Aries may be able to discover who is right for them instead of who they wish was the right one.

  • The Secret of Black Magic (Yamaya Cruz)
    The true secret of black magic is alchemy. It is a science, and much like a chemist it needs the right ingredients, measurements, timing, and knowledge to transform itself from copper to gold.

  • Spiritual Energy (Yamaya Cruz)
    n dummy terms, chakras actually create fuel within the body, much like a solar panel takes sunlight and converts it into electricity. This is the body's natural way of recharging itself. Unfortunately, over the years people have become heavily dependent on fuel. And I don't just mean gasoline. We have forgotten how to recharge our own batteries.

  • Jesus Forbids Exclusion! (Aaron Taylor)
    The term evangelical Christian and I share a love/hate relationship. On the one hand, I believe in the good news of Jesus' death and resurrection and desire to share the implications of this news with others. The problem is that for most people in America, the term evangelical Christian is loaded with political undertones...

  • How Did We Get the Books of the Bible? (Jo Ann LeQuang)
    The Old and New Testaments contain 66 books--but how do we know that they are the "right" books? How did we come to get the books of the Bible? The way in which canon or official texts were identified is crucial to understanding and appreciating the authority of Scripture.

  • Experience Transformation During An All Night Spiritual Celebration (Karuna DiLibero)
    Each year, there is a celebration in honor of Lord Shiva at the Hanuman temple in Taos, New Mexico that I attend as a way to transform my life. This 12-hour ritual cleanses my soul and I feel transformed, fresh and pure, ready to start a new segment in my life. Maha Shivaratri, the "Night of Shiva" is a powerful experience and gives me a taste of the India that I miss living here in the US.

  • Jewish Jewelry For Girlfriends (Martin Vanaldez)
    By arranging to give heart necklace jewelry to your beloved, you are expressing clearly what you may not be able to say in words to her.
