This morning I went to church. I go to Word of Life Fellowship and I love it. Its a smaller church, which is weird to me because I grew up going to a huge church, but that's beside the point.
Anyways, our head pastor was out of town today so we had a fill in pastor, and normally I don't like this pastor, but before church I asked God to give me a willing heart, and that He would speak to me about whatever I needed to hear this morning. Well, He did!
Rob was preaching about prayer and its importance in ALL circumstances in our lives. We have a tendency to only pray when its an emergency! "Oh no, break the glass and grab the fire extinguisher!"
NO NO NO! This is not how it should be! God wants to be in communication with us at ALL times. Whether we're having a good day, bad day, if we're having a time of mourning, or joy! He loves us and wants to be that best friend we talk to cause we want to.
Another thing I'm learning. Prayer and scripture reading go hand in hand! You don't write a letter to your friend not wanting a response! If you pour your heart out to God, chances are you won't hear a thunderous voice, you might hear a whisper. Most likely however is that you will go to the word and that is how God will reply to you. But the best part is, we have access to his words whenever we want! There is no delay. We have access 24/7/365. Its the best thing ever!
Anyways, I don't have much else to say.
Love,
Taylor
