The Tyranny of the Urgent

by Kevin Shorter August 20, 2009

How to pray

 "We are too busy to pray, and so we are too busy to have power.  We have a great deal of activity, but we accomplish little; many services but few conversions; much machinery but few results.R. A. Torrey

We are all familiar with this, but the busyness of life becomes so great that we feel we have no choice. The tyranny of the urgent over plays the desires within our spirit to reach out to God. Unfortunately, too often this leads to self-abasement. Self-abasement is from the devil. The Holy Spirit does point out things we should change, but His way offers hope. What's the difference between guilt and conviction? One leads to discouragement, shame, and depression; the other leads to hope, life, and change.

Praytel is a service to offer a friendly reminder to pray and walk you through helpful topics. Prayer should never be a source of discouragement. Instead, it should offer us a chance to connect with God, who in spite of our personal discouragements does not discourage. As Christians, we may always boldly enter in to His throne room to find grace and mercy. Check us out.  If you give us your email, we wil offer another friendly reminder... this one for when the service becomes live! (The plan is this fall)
