Hebrews 5:7

“While Jesus lived on earth, he prayed to God and asked God for help. He prayed with loud cries and tears to the One who could save him from death, and his prayer was heard because he trusted God.”

·      WOW, Jesus knew a little something about prayer. It’s funny because seeing this scripture I thought to myself, “wait a minute, Jesus is the son of God, he doesn’t need to pray?” even though Jesus was the son of God and had the power to heal, to summon angels, to perform miracles he still managed to pray. How important is prayer? Well if Jesus had to do it, then it must be VERY important! But there was the last part, the fine print at the end that shows us what we must do together with prayer and that is to TRUST God. If prayer and trust is going to lead me to live a life like Jesus, then why not make the time to pray and the effort to trust God no matter how my circumstances look like?
