Prayer As Awe
from Georgianna Hosted by Georgianna
Corky Calhoun So as I have been immersed in all things prayer this year, I have begun to wonder if familiarity has caused us to lose sight of the Awe and Wonder of God? Do our prayers reflect the magnitude of who God is, what God has done, and what God continues to do in the midst of an avalanche of worldly sinfulness. Have we become so familiar with God that we now take him for granted? I began to think that in our over-stimulated cyber driven world in which we live in, are we no longer impressed by the wonder of God's creation? Have we settled for avatars of reality or cheap knock-offs of divine experiences? Do our prayers reflect J.O.Y. ? Jesus first, Others second, and You last? So many of our prayers treat God like he is a cosmic Butler or a divine Concierge. When was the last time we hit the pause button and looked around at the world in which God has created and thought about giving thanks for the creator. If you asked me what I thought was missing most in our spiritual experiences, it would be the loss of awe and wonder in our daily lives. It's not that awe and wonder do not exist, it's that we fly right by it and miss all the beauty around us. So join us Sunday as we continue to look at prayer from every angle.
