Scripture: Hosea 1:2-10 and Psalm 85 • Genesis 18:20-32 and Psalm 138 • Colossians 2:6-15, (16-19) • Luke 11:1-13
What do you pray for, when you pray? The disciples in this week's gospel ask Jesus to teach them to pray. What is it they see and experience in Jesus that leads them to ask this question? As observant Jews, they knew how to pray. What does Jesus mean when he says to ask, and it will be given to us? Seek, and you shall find? Knock, and the door will be open to you?
Debie Thomas, in "When You Pray," gives us an excellent lesson on what Jesus means when he says these things, and as he taught his disciples to pray. Do you believe God answers prayers? How and in what way? How does God answer prayers?
