Every now and then, Louise let’s me know that she’s pray­ing for me. For my health. For my suc­cess.

She real­ly believes in the pow­er of prayer. It’s healed her fam­i­ly, it’s giv­en her guid­ance, it’s pro­vid­ed her with the strength that she needs. She’s one of the few Christian’s whose faith I respect¹.

It’s a nice feel­ing to be in some­one’s prayers, and she does this even though I’m not Christian myself.

Normally, I’m a skep­tic about these things.

Which makes it dif­fi­cult to deny how it’s late­ly been work­ing.
