An Atheist on the Power of Prayer


   When I posted my entry, Bittersweet, in my journal, I received as many as eight comments before I could even sign off, and even more since. That was amazing to me and several responders said they were praying for me.

   If you have read many of my entries you know I am a non-believer in anything supernatural.

  AND YET, since I posted Bittersweet and many of you have said you were praying for me, I have not needed a pain pill.  Not one Tylenol or aspirin.

   Thank you sincerely. Your Faith has shaken my Non-faith.

    Much to say. First off I loved the pictures of your mom, is the one of you when you were a little man? your Bittersweet entry is very true and I think it shows you lived a full life. For me I want the good & bad, it's makes us well rounded.
    I did not know you had cancer. I am sorry your in so much pain.  I really love your entries as I have weeks before I chose you for guest editor pick.
    Oh and them scrabble games, I bet many kids can beat those older then them now, it's amazing what they know!
    Hugs & Kiss

    As you know, I have my own issues about the supernatural. However, I know when there are people out there 'pulling' for us to be our best, no matter what that might be, it sure does help us to feel better!!  

    I'm so sorry I'm late with my comments, Chuck... I've been out of town.. again....
