John 3:8 (ESV)
The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes so you can’t explain how people are born of the Spirit.
This Bible verse is about the Spirit-filled life. The basic idea also applies prayer.
I can’t explain prayer. I don’t know how it works. And I can’t live without it.
Good morning, Lord. Some of my prayers are like a gentle breeze — delightful, refreshing, full of hope. Some prayers are like a mighty wind — twisting, breaking, rattling the windows of my soul. Some prayers come from my own mouth, others from a deep place I can’t control.
Prayer is that unseen connection between me and You. It is the power that lights my way, changes my direction, moves me forward. I know it, but I don’t understand it. I am in awe of it. Thank You for this lifeline to You.
