Prayerfully

There is a lot to be accomplished through prayer. I've been praying about some things for a while.

The thing about praying is that it has an action component most people don't give proper place to; prayer is recognition that your life is a (hopefully) cooperative effort to live life together in the will of God.

That said, what I see today is that prayer is not meant to keep you still; quite the contrary. Prayer gets us moving.

Whatever you have been praying about this week, month or year, move on it. Praying for a job doesn't help if you don't apply nor does praying that God "sends you to the nations" if you don't acquire a passport. In fact, you could be right in the way of what you're praying for.

Let me suggest moving from simple prayer to living prayerfully. Be aware of His breathing and leading as you move and live. Our lives in Him aren't sedentary. Start making a step and see what He blesses, then adjust accordingly.

Maybe that's our problem; we want this perfect plan that never has to be adjusted. If that is your prayer today, let me deter you from that foolishnes: a faith-filled life is very minimal when it comes to planning because it is sensitivity-dependent.

Ponder this.
Comment if you want.
