last friday during our weekly meeting, we watched NOOMA! (: i'm not sure about you guys but i personally love nooma (: and i'm happy that we will be starting on the whole series of nooma! and juz in case you have no idea what nooma is, it was the short 15mins video film of very practical understanding of biblical principles and personal applications (:

Is God too busy to answer our prayers?
If God only chooses to answer some, den why pray?

Open
God creates things that has the ability to create more. That was an empowerment given by God the Creator Himself. This means everything of creation is still unfinished.!

Prayer is likened to tapping into the same divine creative energy that made the universe. It is not passive talking nor is it active rebellion. Prayer is simply being open to God that is here and now. It is being brutally honest with your Maker. It's truth. God CAN handle what you're talking and what you're saying.

Even Jesus when praying in the garden of Gethsemane referred His death as a cup that He doesnt wish to drink. But yet, Jesus assumed that there is some role for Him to play in the on-going creation of God on Earth.

Prayer is your whole posture to life. It's the way you see life through, it's when you never stop asking God what's in it(your circumstances) for you? It is tapping into that same energy that formed the world. It connects us to others and enlarges our perspectives.

Prayer changes us.

So friends,
How honest are you with God in your prayers?
Are you up for whatever God has in your life?

Prayer is life. Be open about your life to your Maker. Sometimes prayers are not answered solely because we are not ready for it's answer. Make a decision today to be ready to give and act according to God's will for your life. Do something to make a difference.

See you on Friday for our next nooma session! (:
