How to pray – 2 – v2

so simple, really
obvious, truly,
not just speaking
but listening as well

how to pray
starting with scripture
the prayer Christ taught
when he walked with us
but needing to wait

to stop, to listen
to be silent, to be open
ready to be still
while God speaks

God will answer
the prayers we offer
but we must be silent
to hear God’s answer

How to pray – 2
Hosea 10:12
“Sow righteousness for yourselves,
reap the fruit of unfailing love,
and break up your unplowed ground;
for it is time to seek the LORD,
until he comes and showers his righteousness on you.”
Hosea 6:3
“Let us acknowledge the LORD;
let us press on to acknowledge him.
As surely as the sun rises, he will appear;
he will come to us like the winter rains,
like the spring rains that water the earth."

and sermonette, thoughts about
how to make us right with God (righteous)
