Pray
"Trust in God at all times, you people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us."
Psalm 62: 8
I know that everyone knows what it feels like to have a full heart. Maybe it's full of worries about the future. Maybe it's full of concern for a friend. Maybe it's full of grief over tragedy that has occured. Maybe it's full of joy for what God has been doing in your life. Maybe it's full of longing for the return of Christ.
Whatever the case may be, this verse commands us to pour out our hearts to the Lord. Worried about the future? Pour your heart out to God. Concerned for a friend? Cast your cares upon the Lord, for he cares for you. Joyful for God's work in your life? Pour your praises out to the Lord. Whatever the situation may be, never underestimate the power of prayer.

Ben,
I have been thankful for the flood of thoughtful posts as of late, even if the bent of most of them is politics (and not important things- like nerf wars).
Keep on keeping it real...
Ben, thanks for this post and sharing this verse from Psalm 62. I like how you said "never underestimate the power of prayer." I need to have more of that perspective when I pour out my heart to the Lord. Thanks for the link!
