MAY 18 – PRAY

05/18 Luke 22:43-46
Then an angel from heaven appeared and strengthened him. 44 He prayed more fervently, and he was in such agony of spirit that his sweat fell to the ground like great drops of blood. 45 At last he stood up again and returned to the disciples, only to find them asleep, exhausted from grief. 46 “Why are you sleeping?” he asked. “Get up and pray. Otherwise temptation will overpower you.”
PRAY
When we are faced with insurmountable challenges or obstacles we should pray. Not passing prayer. Not quick prayer but deep, lengthy, committed, surrendered obedient prayer. All of life’s challenges should be covered with prayer.
