She is going to fast and pray more intensely for the next three days.
I do feel better knowing that not only do we have those on Earth praying and fasting in a special way for the goings on of our country and our world, but that those who now live in Heaven are joining us in prayer.
Perhaps now *is* the time to deepen our prayer life.

Isn't it wonderful when we are blessed with immediate feedback, that we can understand, from our prayers? I haven't watched the news, but from what I heard, Rita wasn't near as bad as we thought she would be. This morning when I left karate with my dd, she was enjoying the breeze, cooling day from a hard workout. I knew that breeze was from Rita (Blessing us,while tormenting others). We stopped right there and said a prayer for the people in the path of Rita.
Oh, that's so cool! What a wonderful thing to share!
