Keep Praying!

God answered my prayers…and continues to.  Setting aside time to pray, to be still, to listen for God is crucial in our ministries. I am confident that God hears me/us and God responds…

God Answers: Yes! No! Not Yet!

And sometimes God responds, “What in the world are you thinking?”  and sometimes, “What took you so long?”

But God always responds!

I am CHRIST CONFIDENT…THAT God hears and responds.  

Rabbi Abraham Heschel…and Jewish philosopher…

When faith is completely replaced by creed, 
worship by discipline, love by habit; 
when the crisis of today is ignored because of the splendor of the past; 
when faith becomes an heirloom rather than a living fountain; 
when religion speaks only in the name of authority rather than with the voice of compassion—
its message becomes meaningless. 

God’s message is not meaningless if we stay active in our relationships with God and with one another.  Be attentive to what is happening in the world.  Be attentive to where God is at work.

Keep praying…keep listening…keep paying attention.  

God is responding to our prayers!
