The Power of Prayers

Finally, after 3 days without my pc and a further 4 days when my internet connection is down, everything is fine for now... and still keeping my fingers cross. My PC's power supply was down, and it took the people at the workshop 3 days to identify the problem and fix it. My modem was down, struck by lightning and then followed by uncertain configuration steps by the technician, led me to 4 days of downtime. But thankfully everything is up and running now. For how long, I dare not say, just pray hard I guess.

Received a disturbing news today, my friend's dad was diagnosed with cancer. I was shock, speechless, stunned and for the first time in my life, at loss for words. I mean what can you say to a person whose dad is dying. I'm hoping to tell him that there maybe miracle, that he will heal, he might be blessed and heal miraculously. I hope to tell those things and so much more of the same line, but its sad that I can't say things like that. One, I'm no doctor and no doctor would even say those exact words. Two, I can only pray for him. Because the power of prayers can do so much, more than anybody or any medical science can do. It's weird, although I have always believe in God and the power of prayers, but this time I can only pray. I don't know what else I can do or even say to lessen my friend's pain. Just pray for him I guess.
