Pray for Rain and Bring Your Umbrella

Read: Mark 11:23-25

The minister's little six-year-old girl had been so naughty during the week that her mother decided to give her the worst kind of punishment. She told her she couldn't go to the Sunday School Picnic on Saturday.

When the day came, her mother felt she had been too harsh and changed her mind. When she told the little girl she could go to the picnic, the child's reaction was one of gloom and unhappiness.

"What's the matter? I thought you'd be glad to go to the picnic." her mother said.

"It's too late!" the little girl said. "I've already prayed for rain."


Ah, the faith of a child. She prayed, actually believing that God heard and would answer. Pretty cool, eh?

When's the last time you prayed, knowing that God heard and would answer?

When will the next time be?
