Pray about everything. ( Philippians 4 v 4 - 7 )
A fellow minister found it hard to appreciate that people pray that God would get them somewhere to park their car,when he considered the really serious things ,wars ,famine,etc, it appeared to him a mockery of what prayer is supposed to be about, surely we not suppose to pray about such trivia.Common sense tells us that God has more important things,like holding the universe together,and all those other serious things.Then there are people who say you should not ask God for anything, I remember a minister who told a lady who asked him, should she pray for God to help her make decisions about cooking something?,he as much as said no,use your common sense.Now of course God has endowed most of us with a degree of common sense,so does that mean we should not ask Him for help in even simple things?,does that mean we should not pray for a parking space?,does that mean we cannot ask God to supply a need?.I believe we can pray about all things,the simple things,the unimportant things ,I told my daughter-in -law that God would help my little grandson to use his potty,and she laughed.I need to realise that God is a friendly person,He is not frowning,or angry,no He is a loving heavenly Father,who loves to hear our prayers for simple things. He does not cry out,do they not think I have more important things to do?,no, that's not the God of the bible,He says to all of His children, 'I'm listening.'' Don't worry 'bout nothing, Let it go,see what tomorrow brings, Don't worry 'bout nothing, Pray about everything Pray about everything. ( Words by Luke Bryon )
