1 Tim 2:8
"It is my wish, then, that in every place the men should pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or argument."
I listened to several people recently speaking about lifting up holy hands and praying to God. Their prayers were answered. One was recalling a childhood memory another was teaching their grandchildren. They were both women so I don't thing God is speaking to just the men.
Coming before God with honesty and gentleness in your heart prepared for what ever God has in store is what I think this verse is telling us. Prayer is powerful, God hears all your prayers and answers then in His time and in His way. His answer is always perfect and sometimes it hurts and isn't what you wanted.
Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for answered prayer, I thank You for joy being brought back into a dark place. Watch over Your children and help us come to you with hands lifted up in prayer and thanksgiving. Lord heal the broken hearted and help them see You in their day. Lord, we are Your children, may we remain at peace and come before you with open arms. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of peace, pray for us.
