An Encouragment

 In Isaiah chapter 59 it says "Behold the Lords hand is not shortened that  it cannot save neither his ear heavy that it cannot hear.  But your iniquities have separated between you and your God and your sins have hid his face from you that he will not hear".  But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.They hatch cockatrice' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.  Doesn't that sound pretty dark?  Well that depends on how you see it.  I see it as an encouragement because at the beginning it says "Behold the Lords hand is not shortened that  it cannot save" did you catch that?  No matter how sinful we are he can still save us!  And after that it says "neither his ear heavy that it cannot hear" so he will always hear our prayers now that is awesome!

My Thoughts On Prayer

                           When I pray it's not just a religous rhyme I say before eating and
                           sleeping.

                           When I pray I am not doing it for show.

                           When I pray I am not doing it to make me feel better about myself.

                           Prayer is not something that you find in 4 year olds little golden
                           book's.

                          When I pray I am having a talk with God.

                          When I pray I am asking God to help me.

                          When I pray I am praising God.

                          When I pray I am praying for others including my enemies.

                          Prayer is a holy talk with God.
