“Some days there won’t be a song in your heart. Sing anyway.” ~ Emory Austin
Romans 8:26 “In the same way, the spirit helps is in our weakness. We do not know what to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.”
Sometimes it’s difficult for me to put my prayers into words. I feel the need to pray but in my head I cannot formulate the words into sentences. I pray that God understands me! Fortunately God knows what I need and what I mean to say even when I cannot verbalize it. He knows my heart.
Prayer is a time to become closer to God and to focus on Jesus. It is a time to remove all of the clutter from your mind so that He is all you can see. Even when you don’t know what to pray for…you will feel His presence when you remove all of the obstacles in your mind. That’s all He wants…for you to grow closer to Him so that He can do work through you.
God answers every prayer. It might not be on the same timetable that we have. It might not be the same result that we are praying for…but He answers. Quiet yourself and listen.
He answered a prayer today for me. It was something I’ve been praying about for over two years. He answered in His time and I’ve learned a lot during the waiting. He’s been there the entire time…holding me. Forcing me to trust in Him. Forcing me to wait and endure….teaching me the importance of Faith.
How great is our God!
When you don’t have a song to sing…sing anyway. When you don’t have a prayer to pray…pray anyway. He’s listening. Don’t give up.
