Confession

Today I was totally convicted that I haven't been praying for our church. I've been so frustrated that I haven't even been praying for change. Not only that, I haven't even believed in the power of prayer to change anything or anyone. Yikes. It's amazing how quickly discouragement can distance us from God. I mean, all prayer means is talking to God about your thoughts, feelings, wants, concerns, etc. and being open to receive His response. I think I was actually afraid that He would answer my prayer to make things better on the surface without dealing with people's heart issues. But those issues are, well, other people's. And it's God's job to put all that together, not mine. I just need to be honest with Him and let Him do the rest.
