Heart Cry

I have just returned from The Gathering, a prayer and retreat week-end run by 24-7SA Prayer Network. It's been good to spend time in personal and corporate prayer.

In one of the session we were asked to identify our heart cry prayer. In other words, if you could pray only one prayer what would it be?

For me at this time it is this: THAT THE SALVATION ARMY FINDS ITS VOICE.

I continually find myself stirred and desperate for Salvationists to be released from their often tongue-tied state. O for prayer to flow freely instead of embarrassed silence, for a rush to testify when the opportunity is given, the hallelujah's and amen's to resound through the rafters during worship, for the gossipping of the gospel and more and more of us to speak up about social justice and moral issues.

What about you?

What is the cry of your heart when you come to God in prayer?

God bless

Carol
