Along
time ago I read in one of my books of a Sunday School Teacher who taught her
children to throw one of their shoes underneath the bed before going to sleep
at night.
So that
in the morning when they get up, they would look for the shoe and remember to
say their prayers. Wow, that is so cute.
Prayer
I believe is the sustenance to our spiritual lives. Without prayer we cannot
make it through the day.
The Psalms reminds me of our souls thirsting for the Lord
our God. When should we be praying as often as we can? In everything we do.
Psalm 42: 1 – 2 AMP
Book Two
Thirsting for God in Trouble and Exile.
To the Chief Musician. A skillful song, or a didactic or reflective poem,
of the sons of Korah.
42 As the deer pants [longingly] for the water brooks,
So my soul pants [longingly] for You, O God.
2 My soul (my life, my inner self) thirsts for God,
for the living God. When will I come and see the face of God?
The Bible says “Devote yourself to prayer, keeping alert
in it with an attitude of thanksgiving.” Only when I am in God’s presence
drawing strength from Him, can I make it through today. I feel alone and
without hope if I don’t come before Him.
Prayer Heavenly
Father, Lord please give us a pure heart, so that we may see You, a humbly
heart so we can hear You, and a loving heart so we can serve You. Lord give us
a heart of faith so we can live with You. Lord, I bring my family and friends
before You, asking for protection and saving. Amen
