Imagine more than 1,000 people gathered in prayer, coming from different backgrounds but united in serving Jesus wherever he puts them, especially for the education of children.
This is the Sydney Prayer Breakfast. The guest speaker, Dr. Andrew Browning, a Fistula Surgeon who has helped over 14,000 African women, shared his experiences.
He prayed with each patient before surgery and some witnessed amazing results from prayer.
One passage he shared stuck with me:
"Listen to my words, LORD; consider my sighing. Pay attention to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for I pray to You." (Psalm 5:1-2)
It reminds us that even when we're too stressed to find words, God hears our sighs.
