Subject: Where do we go with burdens? |
Bible Note: Hank: I personally have found that remembering Psalm 139:3 has been a verse that has brought me to prayer over burdens and all of lifes problems. Just Knowing the my Father KNOWS ME COMPLETLY! I have at times wondered if asking other Christians to pray for a need I am facing is really that important, if I ask to be in God's direct will. What more could I want. Does the prayers of many make God hear my request any more? If I am truely His Child is not my prayer enough? I say this with a serious question, as I have asked for prayer many times in my life, and it was comforting. But, was that not using my faith in God's ability to answer my prayer? I have pondered this for several years. I would respect and appreciate your opinion. justme |
