I prayed for my brother
One day my brother Gavin and I were balancing on the couch. I pulled his foot out from under him. Gavin hit his ribs and neck hard on the wooden frame of the couch. Then mom yelled at me and sent me to my room.
I started praying while my dad stayed with Gavin. I prayed that Gavin is a spiritual idea and can’t be hurt. God is All-in-all and Gavin reflects divine Love, so he can’t be hurt.
My mom came upstairs and started scolding me before I could finish my prayer. Then we went to the hall and talked more calmly. Dad soon came upstairs with Gavin and said Gavin was OK. I felt so good when I saw Gavin was OK!
