This is the morning after our first meeting on “Developing a Lifestyle of Prayer”. We thoroughly enjoyed Chapter 1 of Jim Cymbala’s DVD, “When God’s People Pray”!
We were all reminded of God’s desire to have us seek Him, spend time with Him, and bring our requests to Him. He is motivated by His great love for us and we need to be motivated by our great love for Him. When we love someone, we naturally want to spend time with them and please them, and we should yearn to do even more for Him.
We believe that these times together are the first steps to growing in our Christian walk and Developing a Lifestyle of Prayer.
“Where there is real Faith, there is real Prayer.” Jim Cymbala
