Prayer

In a discussion about prayer today someone brought up the fact that people are driven to prayer and to God when they are most desparate. Here in Ventura and in much of the United States too many of us see our selves as self sufficient. Too many of us are lulled by the comfort of our surroundings. As I watched the news about approaching hurricane Katrina tonight I saw people in desparation. In fact watching CNN in the course of about 2 hours I heard 3 people including the governer of Louisianna ask live on CNN for prayer. I don't want to see mass destruction or death. I don't want to see broken people, and shattered lives, but when we are weak he is made strong. When I pray for the people affected by Katrina. I pray that the Lord will lead them to him in their weakest moment.
