Can you believe it? The Rangers have won and beaten Tampa Bay and now we are off to play the Yankees on Friday and Saturday. So, if the Lord returns before this weekend would you be disappointed? I guess your answer might be determined by how much of a fan of the Texas Rangers you are. I do love Octobers in Texas with relief from the hot Texas summers.
Tonight we will be dealing with the subject, "Too Busy Not to Pray." I guess the book I am reading by that title written by Bill Hybels has stimulated some thought on the subject of prayer. Most people have trouble finding time to pray. There's church and school and neighborhood and job and friends and recreation. And then the crises hit! Time for prayer and medication, I mean meditation. Time for prayer often seems impossible to find.
Prayerless people cut themselves off from God's prevailing power, and the frequent result is the familiar feeling of being overwhelmed, overrun, beaten down, pushed around, defeated. Surprising numbers of people are willing to settle for lives like that. Don't be one of them. Nobody has to live like that. Prayer is the key to unlocking God's prevailing power in your life. Many Christians today are discovering that prayer does not have to happen on the run. Often we think we are too busy not to pray. Tonight we are going to share about God's Presence and God's Power becoming more meaningful than ever before.
God bless you and see each one of you tonight hopefully. If not, perhaps on Sunday and if not then, I pray we see you soon.
Pastor Larry
