How to go to the Father

I’m in a prayer challenge at church and was listening to a video by a guy named Pete Grieg. He runs the #prayercourse which is an 8 week study in the Lord’s Prayer. He said this following quote which I just listened to and wanted to share.

“Go the the Father not expecting to get something from Him but to give our love and affection to Him.“

This is such a great reminder to us all. Prayer is relational not transactional. What if our spouse only came to us with only requests. Never to spend time with us, never to praise or give words of affirmation. Just needs.

Think about that.

All is done in love

“So relinquish now all vain attempts

to parse the mysteries of God’s intent.

You cannot think his thoughts.

You cannot reckon his deep purposes.

It is enough to know that all he does

is done in love for you.”

(From Every Moment Holy)

Trust in His love.
