ALL ABOUT PRAYER


 ALL ABOUT PRAYER



 Psalm 17:15
As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness.  I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness.

The more we bow before Him, the more like Him we become.  The reason?  His Holy Spirit reaches out to our spirit.  It is in communion with our God that He surrounds us with His holy presence, His Holy Spirit.  What a hope He gives!  What a promise is ours!  He offers to share His holiness with us. The moment we kneel toward His presence, the moment we close our eyes to worship Him, He comes closer to us.  He is always here with us...He wants to come closer.  And when we move toward His presence in prayer, with hearts opened and eyes closed, even if we cannot kneel, He sees our efforts.  He is there with us.  We are not alone.  We are like Him.  He created us.  He welcomes us into His presence, into His holiness, into His  rest from our cares. 

PRAYER
Thank you Father for Your love, Your promise.  Thank You that we may hope in You, that Your sweet presence is ours for the reaching toward You.  Thank You that Your presence is our dwelling place, Your provision for those of us who seek to know who You are and who we are in You.
