Try this...

Those unable to attend Reservoir Salvos' sunday worship tomorrow can console their disappointment with this sneak peek of a prayer segment I'm running tomorrow. There's nothing new here, but I like it:

Prayer isn't just about saying things to God...

God wants to speak to us constantly througout the day... 

We don't always hear Him because of all the noise and distractions around us...

He has messages for us that we miss because:

we aren't listening

we aren't aware of His prescence

we aren't ready

we can't hear him above all the noise and distraction constantly happening around us

Find a quiet place by yourself...

Get in a comfortable position... 

Close your eyes and remove any distractions...

Listen to all the sounds around you... 

How many different sounds do you notice?

Spend a moment becoming aware of your own breathing...

Now become aware of God's prescence...

He is all around...

For those who believe, He is also in our hearts...

This means He doesn't leave us after we're done at church or bible study or prayer...

He stays with us, everywhere we go...

Become aware of His prescence right now where you are...

Listen for God...

Maybe he is saying something to you through:

- the bible – God's word to us

- a song

- something that's happened at church

- another person

- nature – God's creation

- our thoughts

- some other way!

What is he saying to you?

Is He telling you to do something?

Obey Him...

Thank Him for speaking to you...

Remember to always be listening...
