BOB RAMBO
Hi! I’m Bob Rambo, Lead Pastor at Central United Methodist Church. Today is “National Day of Prayer,” a day on which Americans are encouraged to pause and pray for our communities, our nation, and our world. In many places there will be special events that encourage people to gather and pray together.
Prayer is a good thing to engage in as a community; but it’s meant to be more than a one-day emphasis in our lives. Prayer is the most important means we have to be in direct communication with God. Jesus prayed [alone and with others; as a Jew he would have also prayed the community prayers of his people].
Jesus also taught his followers to pray – to praise God; to share our daily needs with God; to pray for forgiveness; to pray for God’s will to become part of the fabric of our lives.
Today – I hope we’ll all take a moment to pray. But I also hope we’ll pray each and every day that we can know God better.
Have a great day!
