Motivational Mondays... introduces Prayer

I thought I would start right off from the beginning. Prayer in my life has been so wonderful, comforting, peaceful, and builds a strong marriage. I remember while John was at BYU we went in to talk to our Stake President, John Covey and he told us one of the most important things to do as a couple is pray together everyday. John and I try and have couple prayers regularly and it has blessed our life. I also enjoy individual prayer and family prayer. These tools have blessed my life and I have seen the blessings for my girls. I love hearing the prayer of our children and seeing their faith as they pray. I think when you pray for others it really helps open our own hearts to help others. I love the opportunity through prayer to Thank my Heavenly Father for the blessings I have received for my family and I. Being thankful for our blessings lets us recognize the goodness in our lives. I do have a testimony of Prayer and I am so thankful I have a way to communicate with my Father in Heaven. I know I have a loving Heavenly Father and I know my Heavenly Father hears and answers all of our prayers. We are all a child of God. Heavenly Father knows and loves each of us. I am so thankful I have prayer in my life and my children know that they can pray when they need help. I am so thankful that John and I could teach our family how to pray and the blessings of prayer.
