Attitude of Thanksgiving
I have been using a different approach in praying lately; the past few days. In the past, I used to come before Him with all my desires ,needs, various prayer requests from different ones and for different ones. But I have realised and learnt that praying is not just putting forward your request. Praying is speaking to God. Praying is liken to breathing for our spirit man and hence we can simply conclude that prayers are important and critical!
The last few days, when I start to pray, I start with thanksgiving; Thanking God for all that He has done for me in my life, my family and loved ones. I thanked Him for the hedge of protection upon these precious people, favour of man, financial blessings, wisdom, peace ,happiness and all that He had poured forth into my family's lives and my life. And as I start to thank God, I could feel His presence in my room and it only encourages me to pray even more and press in! Praise God!.. :)
Truly, being able to give thanks is such an important part of prayers because we need to acknowledge His blessings not just in our hearts but verbally too!...to me, its the same as stating your desires because although God knows what you need, He need us to articulate and recieve by faith because if we can see it happening, we will recieve it! Amen!.
I am just so thankful for all that has happened to me lately!..whether is it at home, at work or my personal life..its all unfolding now..although small little steps at a time!..haha!...
God, thank you so much for being with me till today. I know that without You, I can't do anything but with You, truly all things are possible. :)
Still praying!
