I smiled to myself,for a thought came into my life,that I am burdening God to much with my prayers,what a silly thing to think,I think it is sad that a certain church have made poor humans into Gods,they pray to saints,and have exalted dear Mary to the supreme mediator .The fact men and women,cannot even if they are in heaven , be mediators, are still only men and women. We exaggerate mankinds abilities,and in so doing, limit Gods abilities.It is not that we do not recognize godly people,we do,but they are still people with limations. The confusion arises when we stray from Gods word,in 1 Timothy 2 v5, we read,/For there is one God,and one mediator ,between God and man,the man Christ Jesus./Christ who is the God man is more than able to deal with all our prayers,not only is He able but He who became man and experienced life in its fullness,understands,what we are going through.The old hymn ,declared,/no one understands like Jesus,/ so we can come to God through Him,who is touched with feelings of our infimities [Hebrews 4 v14]. Let us not limit the Holy one of Israel,He can more than cope with our prayers,so we can with confidence take everything to Him in prayer.
A prayer...../God open our eyes and heart, to pray,continually and with confidence through Jesus our Saviour and our great high priest, Amen/
