Perhaps you know the uncomfortable feeling of being outmatched by a task in front of you. Maybe you had a shower that sprung a leak. Perhaps you had a vehicle that started to make a strange sound. Maybe you read a recipe filled with all kinds of spices and intricate techniques with which you were unfamiliar. Unless you are proficient in plumbing, car repair, or the culinary arts, you probably had a feeling of powerlessness. So what do you do?

Most of us know the solution: Google, YouTube, Siri, or Alexa. We can find an expert who has uploaded simplified instructions online to help us.

Unfortunately, we often do that with issues far more severe than plumbing or cooking; we do it in the real-life struggles we face every day.

Prayer is not only the avenue by which we can access divine resources, but that engaging in prayer makes a difference.”
