So I was about to put my son to sleep. Arguably the most difficult job of my life. If done incorrectly then he will refuse to go to sleep and that spells disaster for the household when he doesn't.
He must be cool, fan on. He must have prayer and a time for hugs and kisses (from mummy). He must have reassurance that mummy or daddy is outside. And most of all he and his sister must have absolute unbroken silence if not "all Hell breaks loose!"
Today as providence would have it, as soon as all was completed and i was about to slip out of the bedroom for some down time. The Power or Electricity went off! Imagine my appeal to God as to why this happened to me at this time. I could see the future and it looked desperate especially since i was tired from the past couple days.
My Son quickly knelt down and prayed "Dear Jesus Help the Power to come back on." He got up ans saw it was still off and the room was getting warm. After all its midday in the tropics! He knelt down again and prayed again this time he said "Dear Jesus HELP the POWER TO COME ON .... NOW!"
Would you believe that immediately after that the Power came on! I am amazed and how much i learn from my kids.
The prayer of a good person has a powerful effect. James 5:16 GNT
