Luke 18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint.
Merciful God, You are our Heavenly Father who loves us with an everlasting and loyal love. And You demonstrate Your great love for us by establishing a channel for our constant communication with You - the channel we call prayer. We pray when we eat; when we worship; during times of trouble; when we are happy; and during every other occasion in life. Lord God,
You hear and answer our prayers. And we are grateful that our prayers of all types consistently find their way to Your throne of grace and mercy. Thank You Lord. With Your ears and heart open to the concerns of Your children; You discern every utterance expressed, see every tear shed and feel every need we experience. Lord, You know the pain and the brokenness that bring us to our knees. You know the overwhelming challenges that loom ahead. And You know the prayers we will pray even before we pray them. You are The Supreme, All-knowing, and Everlasting God.
Gracious God, we thank You for this connection to You that allows us to walk and talk with You all along our earthly journey. It strengthens our souls (Ps. 138: 1-3); gives us stability; preserves our fragile hearts (Ps. 121); brings us peace of mind; and so much more. Lord, thank You for the privilege and blessing to pray. Please keep us steadfast in our faith; unmovable in our love; and diligent in our prayers to You. Bless us now, we pray. In Jesus Name. Amen
