Prayer

Prayer

We are a praying church

Prayer is what we are made to do.  Humans have been designed by their creator to pray.  Why?  First of all, prayer nurtures and cultivates our relationship with our creator, the tri-une God.  The spiritual disciplines, which includes prayer, are done for the sake of love, nurturing a life of intimacy with the Father, through the Son, by the Spirit.  Secondly, prayer turns the world right-side up.  The world changes when we pray because we are taking ourselves and those for whom we pray to the throne of grace.  And, thirdly, we become more human when we pray.  Consistently spending time conversing with the Living God is a profoundly transforming experience.  May we all then learn to “pray without ceasing” (1 Thess 5:17).
