TODAY’S WORD…

.

I love the Lord because He hears my voice
and my prayer for mercy.
Because He bends down to listen,
I will pray as long as I have breath!

.

– Psalm 116:1-2 (NLT)

REFLECTION…

.

Do I believe that the Lord hears my voice and my prayers?

Do I believe that He listens to me intently,

like as if I was the only one who mattered to Him?

.

Do I allow the Lord to do with me according to His will?

Do I carry on calling out to Him,

speaking to Him,

pleading with Him,

praising Him,

as well as thanking Him always

and in all circumstances, good and bad?

.

If yes,

then the Lord is truly my God,

and my actions denote my faithfulness.

.

If I am not constant in my prayers

and not inclined to pray as long as I have breath,

then perhaps I need to spend some time alone with Him

and ask Him to send His Holy Spirit upon me

to change my heart

and renew my spirit,

that I may go back to loving Him who is my Heavenly Father

– my Creator.
