What Does a Prayer Weigh?
A poorly dressed lady walked into a grocery store. She looked defeated. She approached the owner and humbly asked if he would let her charge a few groceries. She quietly explained that her husband was very sick and unable to work. They had seven children and they needed food. The owner scoffed at her and asked her to leave. Still thinking about her family she said, “Please sir, I will bring you the money as soon as I can.” The owner told her he couldn’t give her credit, she didn’t have an account at his store. There was another customer standing nearby who overheard their conversation. He approached them and said he would get whatever she needed. Reluctantly, the owner asked, “do you have a grocery list?” “Yes, sir,” the lady replied. “Okay,” he said, “put your grocery list on the scales and whatever the list weighs, I will give you that amount in groceries.” The lady hesitated a moment, bowing her head. Then she reached into her purse, took out a piece of paper and wrote something on it. She laid the paper on the scale, her head still bowed. The eyes of the owner and the other customer went wide with amazement. The scales went down and stayed down. The owner said, “I can’t believe it.” The customer smiled as the owner started putting groceries on the other side of the scales. The scales didn’t balance so he continued adding more and more groceries until the scales couldn’t hold anymore. The owner grabbed the paper from the scales and looked at it in amazement. It was not a grocery list, but a prayer that read: “Dear Lord, You know my needs. I leave this in Your hands.” The owner gave her the groceries and stood in silence. Sometime later, the owner discovered the scales were broken.
Only God knows how much a prayer weighs. Never underestimate the power of prayer.
Sabbath rest is complete today at 6:01 pm

James 5:16 says, “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” Please continue to pray for the future of our school – for a teacher and students – for God’s will to be done.
“Prayer is the answer to every problem in life. It puts us in tune with the divine wisdom, which knows how to adjust everything perfectly. So often we do not pray in certain situations because, from out standpoint, the outlook is hopeless.
But nothing is impossible with God!”
Milo Academy students are doing a Car Wash (weather permitting) on Sunday March 2nd in our church parking lot. This is for their Mission Trip to the Philippines. Watch for more details.
