My soul,
wait silently for God alone, For my expectation is from Him.
Psalm 62:5
Prayer is simple, honest communication with God. It not only
sets the stage for our day, but carries us through it. We
discover our world from God’s perspective, which is always
more hopeful than what we may see. God is not in a hurry. The
most important part of prayer, is listening and refraining
from rushing into His presence, reciting a list of requests,
and leaving before we have even received a response. We are
relaying our needs, but removing the reins from God’s hands
when we don’t take the time to listen and receive wisdom and
instruction, that will enable us to follow His agenda for our
day instead of our own. When we wait and listen we can expect
great things.
Prayer
Help us Lord to be patient, and to trust in Your ability and
wisdom in all things that concern our lives. We humble
ourselves quietly in Your presence, and wait for Your wisdom
and instruction. Amen.
