“Why Pray?”

By joe Schlosser
Tuesday, December 7th, 2010

Because I am God’s Child!

12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God– 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
John 1:12-13

Very often, one of the main reasons we don’t pray, is because we don’t believe that what we pray makes very little different; or that we make very little difference to God!

We may even think, “Why would God want to hear from someone like me?”

Our thought for today on “Why Pray?” is simply this – Because YOU are God’s child! And God so deeply delights to hear from ALL of His children.

Please pray, because YOU give God joy just to hear your voice; and because God attentively listens to ALL of His children.

Sincerely Yours in Christ,
Pastor Denny

What some are saying …

Hi Denny:

I very much appreciated your column in the recent CPC newsletter; it gave me a new perspective on prayer. It made me realize that whenever we pray sincerely, Jesus is there with us, joining us in our prayer to God. In fact, maybe the reason the Lord’s prayer begins with “Our Father…” is that whenever we pray it, we are not praying alone, but rather that Jesus is there with us joining us in that prayer to God – so it’s only appropriate that, when we begin that prayer, we (Jesus and me) say “Our” - since there are two together praying to God.

Also, when we conclude our prayers by asking that God hear our prayer “In Jesus’ name…”, Jesus is there with us before God to verify that He agrees with our request and it is His too.

Thanks, Denny…

John
