Striving To Reach The Goal








Friday, April 18, 2008 - Prayer ~ Does It Matter?

 
 Are there some days when you just DON'T FEEL like praying? Maybe you feel like your prayers are not being answered. What is the use to keep praying when you don't have an answer yet? Is there a use?

 Sometimes when we think God is not answering our prayers He has, we just were not listening. God may have said "No," or "Wait," to us. Maybe we keep praying for something we want because we do not want to accept either of those answers.What we would normally like is a quick "Yes". We don't want to have to wait, or hear God say no. We want a yes!

 Maybe we don't feel like praying because, well, sometimes we wonder if God is really listening.  Maybe a few of us are discouraged, and are wondering if God even exists. Does He really hear us? Yes, He does. He listens to everything we tell Him.

 I once read in my devotional book, "Daily Truth For Godly Youth", by Howard Bean ( I HIGHLY reccomend this devotional to you all! I love it!) that everything that has to do with me, God cares about. That means, if I got a Math problem wrong, God cares. If I had a bad day, God cares! If I feel all alone, God cares! Ect. And it's all the same about you! He cares about everything you care about, and more besides.

Even when we do not feel like praying, we ought to.  ESPECIALLY when we DON'T feel like praying we need to! God cares, and we can tell Him all about our struggles,feelings, ect.

 God bless you all!

Like the song says, "Oh yes, He cares, I know He cares, His heart is touched with my grief."
