OWEN
Good morning! I am Owen Weddle, Associate Pastor at Central!
“Ask and it will be given to you. Search and you will find. Knock and the door will be open.” These familiar words of Jesus are the very definition of what a prayer life is about. They speak of the expectation that if we come to God with our requests, we will find an answer. But for many of us, our prayer life is “one and done.” As a result, we may act as if Jesus says, “Ask once... search once... and knock once...”
But the Christian prayer life is a persistent, constant, never ceasing practice that always brings our requests to God. The time we spend in prayer about something represents its genuine importance to us. Sometimes we pray for something simply because we want it at that moment or we feel obliged to because someone asked. But tomorrow, it is forgotten from our minds.
If something is important enough for God to do, it is important enough for us to make it a priority in our constant prayer.
May God bless you!
