A night when my sister and I were about to sleep, an insect came to our room and hanged at the chain which attached to the light. We were terrific because it was first time we saw the green creature and we had no courage to catch it. Instead we tried to switch off the light but yet it did not move.Later on I found out the insect was called ‘Praying Mantis’.
In Greek word meaning "Prophet" or "fortune teller" and the appearance of the front legs is prayerlike manner.
All of a sudden my sister urged me to pray asking God to get rid of the mantis. We both prayed. After some time the mantis was still there but moving slightly lower part of the chain.
Then I had no choice and prayed to God to give me courage and bravely caugh the mantis using a plastic bag.
My sister was so happy that I could catch it, she normally braver than me. :)
Surprisingly she asked "I wonder why the insect did not move when you tried to catch it. I simply answered "prayer".
WOW!!! I wanted to cry, my sister urged me to pray and reaffirmed by asking me a question. It was just her simple faith.
One thing I learnt, when we pray to God, God is listening and sometimes God also wants us to be His partner to accomplish the task! :)
