Answered Prayer

The Power Of PrayerCancer can affect anyone at anytime. We see this constantly throughout our lives. Not long ago cancer struck our beloved piano player Ms. Linda. CBC had searched long and hard to find a new piano player and finally God blessed us with Ms. Linda. She fit in great with our congregation and plays beautifully. The news that Ms. Linda had been diagnosed with throat cancer was taken very hard, but we knew that with prayer the Lord would see her through. We prayed hard for Ms. Linda throughout her difficult journey. She had many trying times, but kept Christ closer than ever. On March 11, 2013 we received a great message through our website.

“Just wanted everyone at Cottontown Baptist to know that the many prayers sent up for me were answered today. I had my PET scan and CAT scan of my whole body. The report said “100% cancer free and we see no sign of this coming back at this time”. Thanks to everyone!!! God Bless and I guess he wants me to keep on playing the piano !!! Yes! Love you all….thanks again”

Ms. Linda has been healed of throat cancer! We are so blessed to have our beloved piano player back and creating that beautiful sound for the Lord on the keys. In life we often underestimate the power of prayer. Prayer is our direct connection to the Father. It is our “two” way communcation with God. “Two” way meaning He hears us and in His timing all prayers are answered. The answer might be yes, no or wait awhile. Please don’t underestimate the power of prayer in your life. The Bible calls us in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 to “Pray without ceasing.” I encourage you today to “Pray without ceasing” and see how the Lord can change your life!
