This is in reference to yesterday's post (Under Updates).  Just think about the silent prayers of one lone woman who stood quietly outside an abortion clinic.  Laws (in the UK) have been passed to stop "demonstrations" by pro-life individuals and groups within so many feet/meters of abortion facilities.  Such demonstrations include "prayer".  Apparently "Prayer" was never specified as to how one might be praying so that silent prayer is as offensive as audible prayer and is punishable with as much as 2 years in prison!  Of course, if you are indeed a praying person you will have to admit to what was going on in head and heart if you are questioned!

As I awakened this morning thinking about this situation, my question to the lawmakers and the abortionists who pushed for the law is simply, "what are you afraid of?"  Silent prayer????  A lone woman, standing quietly, not speaking to anyone, not blocking anyone, not interfering in any way --- praying in her mind and spirit?  That scares you?  WOW!  I am so grateful that you really do believe in the power of prayer! Silent or otherwise.  Her prayers have been heard and are being answered.  And you can take that to the bank.

Blog comments will be sent to the moderator

Thank you for your "musing". They often give me some insights that are new to my mind, and heart, and give me more target prayers.
