Wayne's Words
Jesus spent much time in prayer. He taught the disciples how to pray. He told them they should watch and pray. He recognized the importance of prayer for His own life as well as for His disciples. The Bible has much to say about prayer: our need for prayer; our consistency in prayer; and our attitude in prayer. I think it would be good for each of us to examine our prayer lives in light of the Scripture. I found the following story humorous, but with a good lesson as well: Right praying: A young lady concluded her prayers with a modest appeal: “I’m not asking for myself, but please send my mother a son-in-law.” Remember the words of Jesus, “ASK - SEEK - KNOCK” Matthew 7:7
