Pray
Prayer is intimate. It is a conversation with God. As we interact with Him, we come to know Him more deeply.
Prayer is powerful and effective. God tells us to bring to Him our every thought, concern, anxiety and praise. He tells us clearly that when we seek Him with all of our heart, that we will find Him; when we pray according to His will in Jesus’ name, it will done for us.
Prayer knows no physical bounds. Pray is a spiritual activity. So while we are bound to our physical location, prayer connects us to the people and places that are beyond our reach. Prayer reaches out and connects us to those who are bridging the physical boundaries to take God’s love to others. Through prayer, you go with them!
Prayer is also listening. Since prayer is a conversation with God, it is a time to hear from God. It is a time to grow in our faith and love for God. As we grow, we are better prepared to serve God and other people.
So let us pray.
