Dear Praying Friends~ I have read this several times this past week: “Too often we view prayer as transactional–we pray only when we need God’s help with a specific problem…While God certainly hears these requests, His deepest desires to have ongoing fellowship with us through prayer.” (Jack Graham) So this week, as we pray. let’s make fellowship with God a priority! And let’s keep praying…Show Us Your Glory, Lord as we Seek Your Kingdom First! Pray on, Saints! ~Gina

Prayer Pointer:
Prayer “Fuel”: Lord, forgive us for times when we only see prayer as “transactional”. We know that You love to give good gifts to Your children. But we also know that You desire intimacy with us…the very reason for the Cross! Thank You for the Cross that takes down the “curtain” between us and allows us to fellowship with You. Help us to come to you often this week in fellowship alone! (add your response) Show Us Your Glory, Lord, as we seek Your Kingdom FIRST!
Think/Journal/Apply: What are some ways that I can fellowship with God today?
