FOOD FOR THE SPIRIT--Ready to Help

Our beloved prophet, President Gordon B. Hinckley, counseled: “You can’t do it alone. . . . You need the help of the Lord . . . and the marvelous thing is that you have the opportunity to pray, with the expectation that your prayers will be heard and answered. . . . He stands ready to help.”

Isn't it a remarkable thing that we have been given the power to pray specifically, and call on the powers of heaven to help us in this life? Not only may we pray to build testimony, and to increase faith, but we are also able to receive personal revelation through our righteousness and prayers that will inspire us in our day-to-day activities. No question or problem is too trivial for the Lord' s answer. We can ask for help in a very specific manner. We can ask the Lord to help us with our weight-loss efforts, our children's school studies, our work concerns, financial matters which cause us great worry, and a myriad of other topics. Prayer is truly a communication with our FATHER. Like our earthly fathers, our Father in Heaven loves us and wants to hear our concerns, and see what He can do to help.

With this in mind, I would suggest the following:

1. Make our prayers more respectful.
2. Make our prayers more specific.
3. Make our prayers more earnest and sincere.
4. Make our prayers more frequent.
5. Make our prayers more grateful.

As we re-evaluate the way we pray, I testify that our prayers will allow power from Heaven to spill into our lives: both spiritual and temporal.
