FROM TODAY'S READING...
"The purpose of prayer is not to get God to do what we want. The purpose of prayer is relational; to get to know God; is to know him intimately, so that we can do his will...Prayer, it reminds me all the time I am not in control and it keeps me close to the one who is."

James 4:8, 10 (NLT) Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world...Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.
Psalms 37:4-5, 7 (NLT) Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires...Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you...Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act...
