Sorry for the late post!! Yesterday topic is about conversation of you with God in daily life!
Congratz, you are almost at the half of journey,is 19days now!Answer of the prayer from God is one the most wonderful thing that ensured by Jesus when we accepted Christ. And Jesus didn't leave us at the middle of no way. He actually teaching us how to pray in the bible. From 40days of love, author focus on how Jesus treated prayer as a relationship with God.

In Jesus' example and teaching, three words mark the tone of our conversation with God: persistence, confidence, and reverence.

Persistence
From the passage, we understand how much we can actually count on a loving and willing God to answer our requests when we persist in prayer. From (Luke 18:1), we also understand that God do listen to us, persistence in prayer is born of knowing that the answer is only we God. Just like what pastor had told us before, God will tell us the answer in SMoT (Strategic Moment of Time).

Confidence
Matthew 7:7~11 showed how our Father in heaven ensured the people who ask him and seek him. What Jesus taught is just "Ask" and be confidence! We are limited by time constraint but not to God. He will give us the answer in the most suitable time. Sometime we might not understand but this is God's plan. Jeremiah 29:11 also clearly telling us that God will plan for our future. :) Pray to God with our confidence!

Reverance
The last but not least, pray with God with reverently calling him as " our father"! Reverance in prayer isn't about methods and forms, it's a relationship! And the author has clearly stated for Jesus, conversation with his Father was a part of the fabric of his life, his prayer was just simply a conversation with his Father in heaven.

For day 19, you are challenged to pray as how Jesus pray. Pray to God so that He can teach us how to pray with persistence, confidence and reverence! Students of love, communication in a realtionship is so important! So does communication with God! ^^
