Prayerfulness“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all
circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1
Thess 5:16-18.What did the apostle Paul mean when he wrote, “pray
continually”? For one, he was indicating that we can live in an
attitude of prayer even though we are engaged in everyday
activity. This does not mean we walk around mumbling prayers to
God, though there will be days when we pray much more than in
others.Instead, the indication here leans to one of opportunity.
We can have a natural attitude of prayer surrounding our lives.
Prayerfulness is a sign that we are dependent on the Lord and not
on ourselves. Should you pray about trivial matters? Yes. God
listens to every prayer. Prayers to find lost glasses or to
mentally retrieve forgotten information are worthy requests.God
has called us to be people of prayer.
