‘The greatest sign of pride isn’t the presence of boasting, it’s a lack of prayer.’ – BJ Thompson
Ouch.
We can wax lyrical about being humble servant leaders, but if we don’t come away from the crowd for communion with our Father (Lk 5:16), if our lives are not filled with unceasing prayers (1 Thess 5:16-18) of dependence, humility is merely aspiration. And if our songs are really prayers, sung in faith and belief – they must be desperate echoes of a father, ‘I believe! Help my unbelief!’ (Mk 9:14)
Pray like you believe.
Pray because you believe.
Pray because you need to believe.
To prayer,
AB
