Leaving Prayer, Entering Communion

LPEC Front Cover“Pastor, my prayer list is becoming so long that I’m tired of making request after request for this and that. What should I do?” a young zealous Christian asked me.
“Throw away your prayer list and start communing with God’s Spirit,” I responded.
With a look of astonishment my friend blurted out, “You can’t be serious! Without a list, what would I pray about?”
“Bill, prayer isn’t only about asking God for things. Prayer is fellowshipping with God, being with him and enjoying his presence. You’re tired of asking God for stuff, because your endless asking blocks you from communing with God’s Spirit.”

People and Pink Periwinkles

pink periwinkleOne fall I abandoned a pot of pink periwinkles.  Part of the plant died and the remainder looked very sick.  I moved the potted plant from our patio to a neglected corner of our back yard.  After all, “out of sight is out of mind.”

During the winter the abandoned plant endured months of drought and temperatures that reached the low twenties.  I simply paid no attention to it and intended to throw it away in early spring.

Guess what?  The plant survived, revived and again occupies a prominent place on our patio.  It’s beautiful!  The leaves and stems appear as healthy as ever.  Beautiful pink flowers sit atop almost every stem. …
