What a privilege we have, indeed,
To bow to God on our knees.
To come boldly before His throne
And present to Him all of our pleas.
How amazing an activity,
To approach the King of kings.
To know He hears our requests,
No matter how trivial they seem.
What blessings through prayer we receive!
To know Christ more intimately,
To yield to Him all of our cares,
And find a peace so extraordinary!

“When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.”
Jonah 2:7
Sadly, (and I am guilty of this too) we face a crisis and then panic, worry or react first. Only as a last resort do we run to God. We forget what a powerful privilege it is to pray.
I still have many limitations and can’t do much work on computers these days, but I can still spend time in prayer! Let me know of any prayer needs. I would love to lift them up to the Lord on your behalf.
