Come all you who are weary
If you are exhausted from a difficult few weeks, or struggling as you don't feel like God is hearing your prayers, can we encourage you to come to our next prayer meeting on Monday July 6th?
In Matthew 11:28-30 Jesus says, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
We don't need to be feeling good to come before God in prayer. We can trust that he loves us and he hears us, even when our feelings say differently. It can also be really helpful to have other people to pray with us and for us when we're finding it difficult to know what to say. There is so much comfort found in praying together as a church family.
And if you'd like to understand more about unanswered prayer, you can read Alan's blog from last week.
