PRAYER - AN EMERGENCY NUMBER OR A FREQUENTLY DIALLED NUMBER?
Prayer is the spice of life and even more. Reserving prayer only to when situations are out of hand arises from wrong understanding of what prayer is.
Treating prayer as the last resort is reducing it to an emergency number instead of frequently dialled number. Emergency numbers like the number of fire service, police, ambulance etc. are numbers that are not dialled in normal situations.
Recourse to these numbers is made only when abnormal situations arise. This implies that year in year out a person may not dial any emergency number. In fact, many people pass through life without having recourse to any emergency number. The ratio is even more in countries where the culture of dialling emergency number is not yet common.
Resolve today to pray frequently.
