Baseball Chapel - "Asking but Not Listening"

"What would happen in our souls if we would deconstruct our hearts from saying, “I’ve got to go pray and ask God for this,” and instead, train our souls to humbly bow before Him and say “Lord, Jesus, I come before you, to seek Your face on the matters in my life. I want to know Your heart for me. Instead of demanding that you move, God I ask that you move me to pray as you teach me to pray and I believe You , my Great God, for everything that You tell me that I need.”
"It’s in praying these things that we are able to rise from our knees and walk in whatever answer He has whispered in our ears." - Leah Taylor

I like the part about "seeking Your face in all matters of my life". What a great reminder of what prayer was meant to be.

at Bible study this week, a woman was bringing her request to God and she ended her prayer by saying "but this is my heart, God. Your way is always best. may Your will be done."
i thought it was a beautiful way of putting it.

Today's sermon was about putting God into our little boxes instead of just letting Him be who He is. :) (I thought of this post:)
