Letters To God

Read: Psalm 65:1-8

O You who hear prayer, to You all flesh will come. —Psalm 65:2

Bible In One Year: Jeremiah 12-14; 2 Timothy 1


Every year thousands of letters addressed to God find their way to a post office in Jerusalem. One letter, addressed to "God of Israel," requested assistance in getting a job as a bulldozer driver. Another said: "Please help me to be happy, to find a nice job and a good wife—soon." One man asked forgiveness for stealing money from a grocery store when he was a child.

But were those heartfelt requests heard by God? The psalmist said that God is the one who hears prayer (Psalm 65:2). Whether we say our prayers silently, voice them aloud, or write them on paper, they go directly to God. But He does not answer every request as we would wish. Our petitions may be self-serving (James 4:3), or sin may be blocking our fellowship with Him (Psalm 66:18).

More than giving us what we want, the Lord knows our deepest needs, and He wants us to discover the joy of His presence each day. Because of our faith in Christ, praying becomes our means of communion with God, not just a list of things we want from Him.

In His wisdom, God hears all our prayers. In His grace, He offers forgiveness for all our sins. In His love, He gives us eternal and abundant life through His Son. —David McCasland

Teach me to pray, Lord, teach me to pray;
This is my heart-cry day unto day.
I long to know Thy will and Thy way;
Teach me to pray, Lord, teach me to pray. —Reitz

God hears more than our words—He listens to our heart.

All those critters are probably bigger than her, no wonder she's afraid of 'em!

(Burritos?)

Ahm doin' fine. Tulip said mules come off her feet, she needs something around her heel to hold 'em on. Pointed out the "Dr Martens" to her, and we think they might work. Amy (and me too) are partial to the red suede mules (though I've never tried to walk in anything like them).

I prefer margaritas myself also. Would you like the Mississippi Mule or the Missouri Mule? (There is also a Moscow Mule made with Vodka and ginger beer, but I didn't post that recipe.)

Of course they're bigger than her. But that is no reason to fear them. I threw burritos in for comic effect.
