Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
En nuestro mundo de mensajes breves, demasiadas palabras se han dicho a Dios que no se cumplen. Debemos de agradecerle, alabarle y pedirle, pero también debemos reconocer que aunque nuestras oraciones deben ser constantes, a su vez, no es necesario que nuestras palabras sean elaboradas o refinadas, sino pocas.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Even in our Tik-Tok®, short sound-byte world, far too often, many words are spoken in pledge to God that go unfulfilled. We are also tempted to pray long prayers, thinking God will hear us because of our many words (Matthew 6:7). Instead, let's thank him, praise him, and make our requests to him. But let's also realize that while our prayers need to be persistent, our words don't need to be elaborate, refined, and many in number.
Mi oración
Dios Todopoderoso, gracias por hacer que el Espíritu Santo interceda por mí mientras oro. Gracias por no tener que elaborar oraciones finas para ser escuchado. Gracias por no esperar grandes promesas de mí. Vengo a ti como tu hijo, tu siervo humilde que anhela vivir para ti alabándote toda mi vida. En el nombre de Jesús oro, Amen.
My Prayer...
Almighty God, thank you for the Holy Spirit interceding with you for us as we pray (Romans 8:26-27). Thank you for reminding us in your Scriptures that we don't have to use articulate prayers for you to hear our hearts. Thank you for not expecting grandiose promises or dazzling words from us when we pray. We come to you as your children, your humble servants, who long to live for you and praise you with our lives and our words. In Jesus' name, dear Father, we seek your grace as we pray. Amen.
