Praying for the World Around Us, July 28 Worship Pentecost 7

God wants us to be talking and praying to Him. But what are we supposed to be talking to Him about? In our Old Testament lesson Abraham pleads to God for a place and a people that others would have forsaken. We can learn from Abraham’s example to pray that God would mercifully care for the culture of the world around us. God is great in wisdom and might. How will He answer your prayer? Praying keeps us at once humble and hopeful.
