Prayers

"People may refuse our love or reject our message, but they are defenseless against our prayers." ~ Rick Warren

What a powerful thought. Defenseless means "without help, or protection". You never really think of the object of a prayer request as "defenseless" but rather as one receiving supernatural aid. Defenseless, however, they are to casting off that aid. They cannot become the subject of an un-prayer to reserve the effects of prayer. There is nothing they can do but accept that someone loves them enough to pray for them. Such a simple act can leave a person defenseless.

In light of this new perspective...I thank all of you who have made me defenseless. What a wonderful feeling indeed.
