Restoring the Table: Saying Grace

As we restore the table, we remember that the disciples stayed and prayed in Jerusalem waiting for the Spirit. Jesus’ mother was there praying with them. They did not pray to Mary but they prayed with her. They did not worship Mary but Mary worshiped her Son, Jesus with the early church. The first time we see Mary, she is praying. Now we see her praying again. Message based on Acts 1:12-26.Quotes:Alfred Lord Tennyson: More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.William Law: There is nothing that makes us love a man so much as prayer for him.D. L. Moody:  Spread out your petition before God, and then say, "Thy will, not mine, be done." The sweetest lesson I have learned in God's school is to let the Lord choose for me.A.T. Pierson: There has never been a revival in any country that has not begun in united prayer and no revival has ever continued beyond the duration of those prayer meetings. Duane Brooks: Will you pray?To discover more messages of hope, go to tallowood.org/sermons/.Follow us on X and YouTube @tallowoodbcFollow us on Instagram @tallowood.baptistFollow us on FaceBook @tallowoodbaptist
