Have you ever pondered on what your feelings may be like, if you stay hours, days, weeks and months at home without communicating with anybody? Most likely either the Parents or child will be perturbed.
I’m sure the father would be greatly concerned; likewise the child would be found in uneasiness. The Fatherly role of God to us cannot be overemphasized.
Communication is a vital tool in any family relationship. I mean the child bears his or her mind, while the father replies by responding through action or words.
This is exactly what prayer is expected to achieve in our relationship with God. Have you felt bad lately? Have you been feeling lonely, or helpless of recent?
Why not commune and relate with God in prayers. Pray some.
Did you just mutter in your heart that you’ve prayed? Maybe it was done hurriedly, hastily, briefly, brashly and rashly.
Remember that most of your heart rubbings with your Father had tremendous impact after you’ve spent quality time expressing and understanding one another’s opinion, interest, etc.

Crew members’ expresses their confidence imposed on the flight Captain just as they calmly sit in the plane till their destination is reached.
Despite the fact that the crew members believes in the ability of the Captain, the Captain also at intervals communicate through messages broadcasted in the plane. At such intervals, the passengers build stronger confidence, because they are carried through by the pilot’s messages. “Fasten your seat belt because we are about to take off; ascend a particular height or about to likely encounter a storm”. Such statements show that the pilot is dutifully alert and alerting them.
Would you consider praying that all unnecessary fears be dispersed? It’s only in your communication with God that your confidence in Him can be built by the day. Without any iota of doubt, God communicates with you when you take time out to pray. Take a clue from the experience of the disciples in the early church. While they took out time to pray, the Holy Spirit spoke to them. (Acts 13:2-3)
Or would you also consider one of the numerous experiences of Jesus when he prayed in Luke 9:28-31. He actually had a communion with the heavenly host.
The cares and worries of this life will persist hard and likely send wrong signals to you to the point that you put aside your golden opportunity of communicating with the Father. Just as a passenger is likely to be distracted and unnecessarily deceived by looking through the window of the plane and seeing the different cloud formations. He’s likely to forget that those clouds are nothing but norms. Instead of steadfastly maintaining the confidence in the communication he’s been having with the captain, he raises a false alarm of what can not be.
Are you getting bordered or deceitfully being swept away by the operations of the world system you’ve seen through the ‘window’? Draw back the curtain and “PRAY SOME”. Reassure your heart via your prayer communication with the Father.
“These things have I spoke to you that in me you might have peace. In the world you (shall) have tribulation; but be of good courage: I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33, JND).
Instead of looking into the world and pondering over her offers, why not with the word of God at the back of your mind, pray some more. Reassure your heart, strengthen your confidence, he’s still your father. He’s in charge, and you are on course.
