Questions about prayer don’t keep us from praying

Eddie Parrish wrote today on “Confidence in Prayer:”

Studying prayer can be a frustrating endeavor. While the Bible reveals no small amount of information about this great privilege, there are still questions that have puzzled great minds for millennia. How, specifically, does God answer prayer? What are the mechanics of it? How do we reconcile the sovereignty of God, the free will of man, and the role of prayer in bringing about positive change in our lives? I admit to being unable to answer those questions to my own satisfaction.

But Eddie still prays with confidence. Read his whole article here.

Praise is Yours

Praise is yours as God almighty,
Power belongs to you, and glory;
You throw down the proud and haughty,
Humble souls you lift and carry.

Let your approval be my guide

Keep me from the desire to hear
The praise of men, from words and acts
Designed to gain the human eye;
Let your approval be my guide
In all I do and say, in heart,
In thought, in every plan and purpose.
