Gotta Love Childlike Faith!

I spent all day yesterday sick in bed, mostly with the TV off due to the severe excess of food-related commercials. After Monica put the kids to bed last night, she came into the bedroom to let me know that Shane (my 5 year old) prayed earnestly for me before going to bed. "Lord, please help Dad not to be sick any more." "Lord, please help Dad feel better." "Lord, please help Dad sell more houses." You can call it coincidence, but I'll call it answered prayers. Being five years old, he hasn't learned how to doubt God's abilities yet. I slept great last night and woke up feeling fine this morning. Even if the "sell more houses" prayer doesn't have the same instant result, two out of three isn't bad!

Sounds like you got three out of three!
Congrats!

Thanks! It was great to be well enough to attend this morning's closing and personally hand them the keys to their house. However, I'm assuming Shane's prayer was for future clientele.

Congratulations, Dennis! Many prayers have been offered for you concerning the third prayer request!
