If We Say We Believe In Prayer…
Logging you in...
I think we many times think of prayer as something we do on Sunday in church or when we are in some dire distress. When things are going well...well why pray?
I think we've lost the thought process about praying to praise Him or worship Him outside of Sunday morning or to just give Him His due for being God. I know that for years and years I would pray but it wasn't consistently or often. After things broke down in my life, one of the things that I started doing was to pray more consistently and more often. Not just for the pain in my life, but for the other reasons that I've mentioned. I feel like my relationship with Him has grown because of that.
I also think that we sometimes don't pray because we feel that He doesn't hear them so why bother. There are times in the situation I am in that I'd love to get some good word from Him and there's usually none. And that sometimes makes it hard to want to continue on... but I do because I know it's the right thing to do and that in the long run I'll be better off for it.
