Street Prayers

Through the sounds of the traffic, a busy street corner sets the scene. As individuals rush on with their day and cross the corner, their thoughts and prayers can be heard by the congregation. A frustrated pedestrian blames God for the traffic preventing him from crossing causing another delay. A business man apologizes and prays for God's help. A tourist gives thanks for all that God has created as she stands in awe of the skyscrapers towering above. A woman battles with God over her husband's illness. One passerby is heard reciting the Lord's Prayer. A girl humorously asks God for a sign that she is in relationship with the right guy. A man frustrated with his situation blames God. A father prays for his daughter's spelling test. A man pleads with God about the truth. Another thanks God for making a difficult situation bearable. A woman prays for wisdom from God as she notices weary people on the street. She asks God to guide her in helping the needy. With each individual prayer we get a peek into the lives of everyday people seeking answers, reaching for God.
