"Prayer does not demand that we interrupt our work, but that we continue working as it if were a prayer."
Mother Teresa
"A day without prayer is a boast against God."
Rev Run
when we start to pray and declare,
it does wonders to not much of your situation first,
but rather your spirit [in the situation].
there is an inbuilt of new found Godly confidence,
which causes our hope and faith to rise.
even in the dark, there is still light.
it is like He is opening our spiritual eyes,
to see His wonders He has for us again.
and before we can hit amen,
He has already begun working on it.
my "Rebekah" is on her way;
He shall lead me straight to the door without hesitation,
and I shall know it is soley, completely, obviously, and totally from Him.
You will ever be exalted!
"Well, when I came this very day to the spring,I prayed, 'God, God of my master Abraham, make things turn out well in this task I've been given.
I had barely finished offering this prayer, when Rebekah arrived, her jug on her shoulder. She went to the spring and drew water and I said, 'Please, can I have a drink?'

"Well, when I came this very day to the spring,I prayed, 'God, God of my master Abraham, make things turn out well in this task I've been given.
I'm standing at this well. When a young woman comes here to draw water and I say to her, Please, give me a sip of water from your jug,
and she says, Not only will I give you a drink, I'll also water your camels—let that woman be the wife God has picked out for my master's son.'
I had barely finished offering this prayer, when Rebekah arrived, her jug on her shoulder. She went to the spring and drew water and I said, 'Please, can I have a drink?'
She didn't hesitate. She held out her jug and said, 'Drink; and when you're finished I'll also water your camels.' I drank, and she watered the camels.
I asked her, 'Whose daughter are you?' She said, 'The daughter of Bethuel whose parents were Nahor and Milcah.' I gave her a ring for her nose, bracelets for her arms, and bowed in worship to God.
I praised God, the God of my master Abraham who had led me straight to the door of my master's family to get a wife for his son.
"Now, tell me what you are going to do. If you plan to respond with a generous yes, tell me. But if not, tell me plainly so I can figure out what to do next."
Laban and Bethuel answered, "This is totally from God. We have no say in the matter, either yes or no.

Rebekah is yours: Take her and go; let her be the wife of your master's son, as God has made plain."
