I wanted to share this for what it's worth about the power of prayer.
I worked overtime yesterday until 7pm. Normally I am home by 3. Towards the end of the day I realized that I had forgotten to do something that my wife had asked which had to do with my parents. W does not contact me during the day anymore, so she never said anything to me. I called my folks and they told me W didn't tell them what she wanted, so I thought she assumed I would have. I knew at that point I was going to get either an earful about not being responsible, or even more cold shoulder with a side of snide attitude.
So, on the way home in the car I turned off the radio and asked God that if it was possible to please make this a non-issue, to make things at home at least status quo, nothing added to make it more uncomfortable.
Well, as soon I said the last word, my phone beeped with a text message. It was from her saying her and the kids were walking around the block so they might not be home when I get there. I know if she was upset about the issue I was praying about, she would never have written a text (unless it was an admonishing one). I felt better that it was going to be OK when I got home. Sure enough, it wasn't an issue, she never brought it up, and we actually spoke to each other a little bit.
Praise God!
