From God's Heart, to Andy Stanley's lips, to me via my mom and email. Thanks for the reminder Mom. I need it and I love you too! (PS can't wait to see you in PA in a couple of days!)

"Prayer is critical to vision development. Prayer keeps the burden fresh. It keeps our eyes and hearts in an expectant mode. Prayer doesn't force God's hand. But it keeps us on the lookout for his intervention. Prayer sensitizes us to subtle changes in the landscape of our circumstances. When He begins to move, we are apt to recognize it."
