At the beginning of this month, we started approaching prayer as if we knew nothing about it. It was raw. It was pure. It was sweet. We learned so much because we had so much to learn.
But lately we have forgotten our place in the story of God. We have seen God do so many amazing things through our prayers, and so we turned the camera onto ourselves. For a while we imagined that we were the main characters. We started praying for the needs that we saw without asking Him what the needs really were. Because we imagined our roles to be greater than they really are, we tried to play a part that was not ours to play. We have also stopped asking God to grant us the grace to pray, and as a result, we have been neglecting to meet together some times.
Tonight we are going to start fresh again. I am excited to pray again. And I am so thankful that I do get to play a part in the story of God. And the part that I play is not insignificant, as long as I play the role that I have been assigned.
In his grace,
bethy
