Thank you, Jeanine, for sharing this example of effective prayer. The words from I Corinthians on the power of love speak to me about impersonal, unconditional love. To live the essence of this pure love is to not demand or expect love in return. Loving for the sake of Love is what it’s all about. I believe that the inmate let go of any preconceptions of how things should turn out. Ultimately he put his prayer in God’s hands. What a wonderful turn-around of events for him and his wife.
