A good friend said to me one day, in a quite daunting , negative tone Dennise " Prayers Are Just Words of Comfort" I felt a little nudge , and it got me thinking as to that persons thought process.  Yes prayers bring comfort but I strongly believe in the power of prayer . Sometimes we pray out of  habit and repetition, not understanding the words we pray or why we pray. We just say words . So  I decided to examine prayer a little more closely.
