Is prayer a regular part of your day or do you only pray when you get into a difficult situation? Do you treat praying to God like a 911 call only to be used in extreme emergencies?
Sometimes we may not want to bother God with the little things in our lives because we might think He sees that as just pestering Him. Some people might even expect God to respond, “Go away. That’s not important. You figure it out.”
Nothing could be further from the truth. God’s love for us is much deeper than we often give Him credit for. He loves us and cares about all our problems no matter how big or how small.
Passages used: 2 Kings 6:1-23; Matthew 10:29-31; Matthew 6:25-34; Matthew 9:1-8; Jeremiah 32:17; Isaiah 46:9-11; Luke 18:27; Job 38:1-35; Philippians 4:12-13; Psalm 91:1-16; Matthew 5:43-48
