Is there room for prayer?

Tuesday night I ran up to the store for some grocery's. While sitting at the stoplight, I started reading the bumper stickers on the truck in front of me. The first one caught my eye, "Religion kills brain cells" and the second took my breath away, "Nothing fails like prayer." Even now, I shudder to strike those keys. I immediately started praying for the soul in that white truck. My mind started to ask why? how? What could make this person put that sticker on their vehicle? Was it a tragedy, an unanswered prayer, a wrongfully answered prayer? I started to beg God to touch this person, to have me or another Christian come into their life that day. I felt like I had to intercede in prayer for a person I didn't even know. My thoughts then wandered to an even more disturbing event earlier that week. A woman I know received a phone call at work telling her to pick up her daughter from school because she had just tried to commit suicide on school grounds. What is worse, the daughter is 7!!! Oh yes world, we need prayer now more than ever. Why, because God is there when no one else is, God is there waiting for us to spill out our worries and fears, and most of all, because God will never leave us or forsake us. Please take a moment to pray for all the "white trucks" that you see on a daily basis, and all the "7-year-olds" that feel they have no where else to turn.
