Why Keep Praying When Prayers Doesn’t Seem to Work?
This eternal and perplexing question can only be comfortably answered by understanding the purpose of prayer. Yes, we make requests and intercede. It is only human to have expectations based on what we wish to happen. But the ultimate purpose of prayer is to connect with, acknowledge, and glorify God with the only gift we truly have and that is faith. With this in mind, despite disappointment, frustration, and anger, we can transcend our human emotions and rise to a greater joy than if what we prayed for happened.
Your Grandpa Loves You
My friend, Sebastian, writes a daily blog to his 7 grandchildren. He has been doing this for years without interruption. With profound clarity and simplicity, Sebastian applies Holy Scripture in a way that makes sense to his grandchildren. He has allowed me to share his writings, below.
“No one can stop a man who draws his strength from God.”
(Psalm 18:32)
Some days you may stumble. Some days you may tire. But you never surrender, because God lifts you up. Some days you’re a conqueror. Some days you’re overwhelmed. But you never give up.
Every day, you stand firm in faith. You keep praying, keep hoping, and keep holding to God’s promises. You’re forever believing and In total trust of the Omnipotent God who “holds you in the palm of His hands.”
Your grandpa loves you.
