Arrow prayers

We can and should pray at other times as well.  Arrow prayers are short prayers which fly like an arrow to God and they are very useful during the day.  So you might be sitting in the bus going to school and you see an ambulance racing along with its lights flashing.  You could say a quick prayer for the sick person and his or her family and for the doctors and nurses who will be caring for the person in hospital.  You don’t have to use a lot of words, in fact, just holding them all in your mind and saying the name of “Jesus” is all that is needed.
