Last week’s post, “I DON’T ALWAYS GET WHAT I WANT”, prompted me to write this.......
I DON’T ALWAYS FEEL LIKE PRAYING...
NOW, the simple definition of ‘PRAYER’ is: CONVERSATION WITH GOD...The definition we learned in grade school was: PRAYER IS THE LIFTING UP OF THE MIND AND HEART TO GOD...and a good friend of mine who passed away recently would always add: AT THE INVITATION OF GOD...
SO, like a Good Father, it is always GOD WHO REACHES OUT TO US, not the other way around...YET...
EVEN SO...there are those times when I know God wishes to ‘CONTACT ME’ but my heart and/or mind just aren’t/isn’t into it...
AHA THOUGH...GOD, THE PERFECT FATHER, has even provided for those occasions...
HE HAS GIVEN US JESUS, and JESUS’ CHURCH, or as I like to refer to it...THE BODY OF CHRIST...AND...
Through His Body, THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS...SO INTERTWINED AND CLOSELY CONNECTED that there is SOMEONE SOMEWHERE ALWAYS SPEAKING TO GOD ON BEHALF OF HIS BROTHERS AND SISTERS...
THAT IS THE GOOD NEWS OF THIS POST...LET US CELEBRATE BY CARRYING THESE THOUGHTS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE WEEKEND...AND BEYOND...!!!
