We pray and pray and pray and pray, and still some things don’t change

We pray and pray and pray and pray, and still some things don’t change.

What the heck? Right?

Does it ever occur to us that we are not in control? And that the whole point of praying is that it’s a conversation.

With God.

And that conversation is a two-way street.

We can’t just ask and then not listen.

Maybe I need to change, to simply listen, before other things will change.

Praying we all find the strength we need today to get through it.

Be kind to everyone you meet, for we are all going through some sort of hell.

Just be kind.

No matter how impatient the devil gives us permission to be.

Mind, body, spirit, so let’s give a moment to think about our work today, punch in here.

 

What if we didn’t criticize the “bad” Christians, but thanked the “good” ones?

What if we didn’t criticize the “bad” Christians, but thanked the “good” ones?

With our precious, limited time, will we spend it focused on all the reasons why something is bad… or all the reasons something is good?

And how does that impact who we ultimately become?

And how much does this even concern us?
