O you who hear prayer, to you shall all flesh come. - Psalm 65:2
Yes God, the Lord the Creator, our Lord Jesus Christ who sits on the right hand of God the Father, it is he who hears all prayer!
Jesus hears, He is not dead and buried, He is alive, He is the Eternal One, the God who hears the cries of His loved ones, He who listens, even when we are alone in darkness, abandoned, deserted, abused, forsaken, forgotten by all, neglected, depressed, even when we are persecuted with impunity to death, Jesus hears our cry. Oh what comfort, though no one responds to our distress, He hears our prayer, our voice, He sees our need, our desperate plight. Truly we come to Him, we draw near to Him in prayer.
I wonder if we truly appreciate what a God-given resource we have at our disposal, I wonder if we realize what privilege we have been given?
"Oh Lord, you see us where we are, you see us as we are, you see beneath the facade, you see our heart, our lostness, our brokenness, you see and you hear!
May your name be praised now and forever more, Amen!"
Draw near to Him in prayer.
May He bless us in the days that lie ahead with a stronger sense of His very real presence with us at all times.
