It's been a little sad reading through my 96 pieces of mail this morning. Maybe your fresh viewpoints can help jolt us out of this negative frame of conciousness. My Prayer was sent by me. When my life was at about it's lowest point and it was difficult to even pray (just didn't even feel that he would want to listen anymore) He gave me that song and I would sing it with my guitar. It then became easier and easier to pray. Don't think that because it was sung, and always the same, that it ever lost meaning. It was difficult to sing then because I was so desparate. It is still difficult today to sing because the contrast in my life is so extreme it is incredibly humbling to see how He *answered* *my prayer*! Thanks for the positive note and brightening my day. In His love, Elizabeth Return Address...... Elizabeth Stevens (314) 882-5166 CCCAMPER@UMCVMB Computing Facilities University of Missouri-Columbia 316 Jesse Hall Columbia, MO 65211
