Prayer God Hears

I’ve prayed all sorts of prayers since Jesus invaded my life. Some embarrassingly small in faith (is there anything smaller than a grain of mustard seed?) Some sad. Some mad. Some glad! One thing I’m convinced of - He’s heard them all. … This recent series of answers has got me thinking. What makes for fruitful prayer and perhaps just as importantly, what doesn't? What's needed? What's not? And what constitutes “fruit?”

A Mustard Seed

I'm thankful that when I ask God for something with faith like a mustard seed, he doesn't answer in kind. Periodically, I pray that God will help me connect better with my son Jonathan. Because he is on the autism spectrum and non-verbal, I don't always "feel" the connection.
