The Greatest Power

A poetic post I saw on Facebook, from Andy Reyes in Cuba …

Love. It is the privilege God has given us. 
Read. It is the source of wisdom. 
Think. It is the basis of innovation. 
Give. It is the way to receive. 
Laugh. It is the music of the soul. 
Work. It is the road to success. 
Save. It is the secret to security. 
Play. It is the path to perpetual youth. 
Pray. It is the greatest power on earth.

There is a lot of power in the world, but so much of it is misplaced and misused. I see that last line and realize where real power is … being an active believer, one who prays. Prayer is what brings us to our soul, to our maker, to our redeemer. Without prayer, we are often lost. Maybe mostly lost.

I like the whole post, not just the last line. It is worth sharing with my kids and yours, because there is raw truth in every line. The more we understand the value of all we do … whether it be love, think, play or pray …  the closer we will get to the core of life. I pray today that I and we keep those truths in mind always.
