    Introduction: Prayer is our way of communicating to God. This is a privilege that was given to us by the Trinity (God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit). We often times take prayer for granted, but it is our only resource to having peace in the midst of a storm, or having shelter ...read more
