The Habit of Prayer

Prayer serves as the open line of communication between God and His children. But all prayers are not the same. When we are surrounded by problems and our minds are overloaded with thoughts of anxiety, we often ask the question, "Where is God?" Today's sermon examines an instance in Scripture where the believer seeks answers and help from God through prayer. As we eavesdrop on the Psalmist's experience, we find a resolve that informs our faith in troubling times. Prayer springs out of faith, to a faithful God, in faith that one will be both heard and helped. When all the believer has left is their faith, the prayer of Psalm 13 exemplifies the way in which we can learn to be okay, even when nothing is okay.
