Today, while browsing the internet, I saw a story on Instagram of a tweet by Neil DeGrace Tyson about the 'power of prayer.' It's a old tweet. This tweet challenges the power of prayer, stating that it is ineffective, and so on. It made me think a lot.

He says: 'Evidence collected over many years, obtained from many locations, indicates that the power of Prayer is insufficient to stop bullets from killing school children.'

I don't know how to answer that.


Today, I believe I made the most powerful prayer since I started this purpose. During part of the prayer, I was very distressed and could only repeat: "Jesus Christ, son of David, have mercy on my family and me." I repeated this phrase for a long time.
