Returned from Lakeside today. Fun time, hanging out with family and such. Have gotten into an in-depth study of Matthew - I think a lot of us have shirked faith, prayer, fasting. There is something to be found when Jesus says if we have faith like a mustard seed we can do a lot. What is faith? Really, what is it? Knowing something? Believing something? Or is it something so spiritual, so extreme, that it cannot be touched by human words? And what is real prayer? Babbling off sentences before going to bed, or eating a meal? Or so much more? How many of us really fast anymore - fast on food, desires, things we find hard to release? How many of us really live our faith day-by-day as an organic worship offering to God? As we read the Scriptures, we mustn't just hear, but also listen, ask the tough questions, and discover, What needs to change about me?

dude, you should check out louie giglio's message series on remixing our prayer. it's available for listening at 722 online
Doug referred me to it a couple weeks back. It is AMAZING. I love how he shows how selfish and hollow some of our prayers are. It really makes you think - and makes you take a step out to make prayer something really meaningful. His speel on how we are blessed through Christ, the heirs of God, the children of God, was really cool, too. Louie's opened some eyes.
