Rehearsal tonight and Nat'l Day of Prayer...


Ahh, Tuesday night is rehearsal night.. we need to work up some new tunes. should be good!

Also, Thursday is National Day of Prayer... everyone should find a place to pray. Tons of local churches and other facilities is taking part.

God tells us in the Bible to ask and it shall be given. Well, we need to remember that even tho we ask for stuff, God is still in control and knows what is best for us. Our prayers and petitions need to line up with his will and plan for him to grant it. And sometimes, He does answer our prayer, but not in the way we want or even thos we can immediately see it. God wants to bless His people and wants only the best for us, but sometimes what we think is best for us, is not always the best. We still need to ask and bring things to the Lord in prayer. He hears us. Jesus prayed to His Father, and we are told to follow Jesus example in all things. He even taught us how to prayer to the Father, known as the Lord's Prayer. When we pray, we are communicating with God, our Father. Think about talking to our dad here on Earth.

kid - "Hey Dad, can I borrow the car"
dad - "ahhh, no"
kid - "come on, please"
dad - "ahh, no"
and on and on.. who know how this will end. Maybe dad will say "sure, have fun" or he will say, "no, you're an idiot and you can't handle it"

The same with God our Father. He knows what is always best for us, He has lessons for us to learn, He says yes, He says no, He will always take care of us and help us every way He can, but He still wants to hear our side and He still desires communication with His children..

So, get out there and pray!!!! Thursday May 1st..

God bless
Tony
