Question by don_steele54: Does God answer prayer?
Yesterday a mother called our house for prayer for her son. My Wife listened attentively to the woman. She had just gotten back from Wichita Kansas. Her seventeen year old son had come up missing from a drug rehab center there. He had been missing for two weeks and his family had went there to pass out flyers with his picture on them in hopes that someone might identify him and he could be found. The lady told my Wife that she wasn’t a Christian, she had grown up catholic and had left that after leaving home at a young age. My Wife is not shy when it comes to prayer and asked the lady if she would like to have a prayer over the phone. She was willing to do anything at this point if it would help get her son found safely. After the prayer they said their good byes.Ten minutes later this lady called back to tell my Wife that they had no sooner hung up the phone and her son called.This lady is now ready to here more about Jesus,will you all pray for her and her family?
NEMO you might have something to base your idea on if he had called the next day even.But this was as soon as the phone was hung up. My wife had prayed that the Lord would put it on this young mans heart to call his mother.
UPDATE: This young man went and turned himself in today. It was a court order that he be in the rehab center. His mother said that she nor her son were affraid though because now they knew that God was with them. This whole family is turning their hearts over to God. We all know satan won’t give up so easily so please continue to pray. And God Bless all of you for your prayers, and words of praise.    Read more...
