Prayer.
prayer is often the thing i neglect. I realised that my quiet time is becoming more and more like a daily routine that goes like this : read my daily devotion, say a short prayer and then say goodnight to God. sometimes i do find praying very difficult, especially praying for something that seems so impossible.
just a few days ago, i was praying for a friend whom i've been praying for since a long time ago, and a thought came into my mind... "whats the point of praying and praying when u don't see it happening... if God wants that to happen, he would allow it to.. u dont have to bother praying anymore." i allowed that negative thought to cripple me, but the sermon today struck me...
i went for sunday service at expo today. woke up early and was feeling extremely tired during service (especially during worship session). but i think the sermon woke me up. lols! pastor khong stated that we need to pray because even if it is God's will, if we dont pray about it, God will not allow it to happen. He gave us few examples and real life situation of how prayer help save lives.
i finally understood how important prayer is.
