Take it to Jesus
In whom we have boldness and access with confidence through our faith in him. (Ephesians 3:12 ESV)
Prayer is our access to God. The Bible says that Jesus taught His disciples to pray; He taught them how to have access to the Father. The example of how He taught them to pray applies to us today. Each of us has that direct access to God. Each one of us is able to talk directly to God and ask Him anything we need to know in our lives.
And what I find absolutely fantastic is that God gives answers. Of course, the answers I have received weren’t always the ones I wanted, and things didn’t always turn out the way I hoped for or thought they would happen. But the cool thing is that He answers me, and He will answer you too when you ask.
Just be sure to stay open to His answers, just like Jesus prayed “Nevertheless, not my will, but yours be done.” When you have a problem or difficulty in life, take it to Jesus.
Take time to pray, to tell God what’s on your heart. There may be others that you want to pray for, too. And I have found that He works the same way with those prayers. Explain their need and ask for His help in the situation, and then trust. —Dan Ross [1]
Make your prayer time a sacred item on your schedule. Make it nonnegotiable. Strong daily routines are life-giving, and prayer is the first of them. —Matthew Kelly
