From Murray
How are you getting on with the ten days of prayer? How has it been working out making a bit of extra time to use the prayer leaflets? Have you found a special time and special place to pray? Have you learned things in the last few days which you would like to carry on doing?
Lots of questions to ponder! Last Sunday, David Rhodes was reminding us (at our 10 am service) that prayer is hard, so we should pray as we can, not as we can’t! Prayer isn’t easy, but it is at the heart of our relationship with God, so it is always good to learn and try different ways of praying.
