Fervent prayer

Prayer

 

Colossians 4:12 

12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a bond-servant of Christ, greets you, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

 

Sighs too deep for words ... to pray in the Holy Spirit

Quietly in ecstasy ... expressing self to God.

Day and night, constantly ... reaching to inherit

The attention away from self and concentrate on God.

 

Burdens felt in prayers ... can only be released,

Word by word and thought by thought as one expands to Life.

Death with all ornaments ... fade into the past

As you find yourself again ... in relationship with Life.

 

Through prayer we find out ... what our burden is.

A call to war ... to war we go and there to offer Peace.

The gospel we preach if that’s the case ... is as easy as this.

A call to pray or a call to give ... this is the Way to teach.
