It's related to the Mary and Martha story about working versus being. Sometimes we're trying so hard to do all the right things in all the right ways that we completely the guy - Jesus - who just wants us to hang. You can take your shoes off at my place, Rob…

I do believe that we have to come to that place where we feel at home with Christ. How else are we to have a close relationship with Him. You made me realize that our prayers compared to those of the third world are indeed worlds apart. We tend send our prayer to God like we leave a message to someone we can't find. Call them on a telephone because we are to busy to go and speak with someone face to face. If they don't answer we simply leave a message on the phone hoping that they will receive the message and get back to us. Those of the third world usually don't have that technology so they walk or travel to speak to whoever they need to speak to... face to face. I believe they must Pray with the same concept. They wait for God to show up so that they may speak to him face to face. None of this, “let me hurry up and pray so that I can get back to whatever I was doing” mentality. Today I will spend time waiting on God so that I can speak to Him face to face. Blessings Rob. I enjoyed your interpretation in prayer.
