Many times in the past has my body been laid up because of injury. I finally learned that just because I could not move and do normal daily activities, there was one thing I could still do, and that was pray. It may seem like it is not much, especially to someone who has little to nothing that they can do. Think about the parable of the widow and the two mites.
Luke 21:1-4 And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, 2 and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites.3 So He said, “Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all; 4 for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had.”
There were those who judged her, but Jesus sees that she has given all she had. Prayer is important, and right now I have been reminded that my body has it’s current limitations, and I am not able to to the simplest chores and even having difficulty feeding myself, but I can pray. I am not to think less of myself because I cannot labor in the physical, but in the spirit I can do all. Praying not just for my own needs, but for others through out the world and all of the needs of the people in this world.
Now for those who can do more than pray, I pray that you do all that you can, but please do not look down on those who have only prayer to give.

Prayer is awesome, Julie! Prayer is so powerful. It is not a widow’s mite or what the least of these have to give, it is the very foundation of our faith. It’s a shame that we often tend to pray either when we are desperate and have nothing else to lean on, or else when we are laid up and can’t physically do chores. Prayer actually is DOING something, the most important thing of all. 🙂

Yes, you got what I was saying, it might seem like you are not doing much, but it is such a powerful weapon.
