Sera speaks: "Prayer"

Sera is a theatre production student from La'Salle, she never fails to inspire others around her with her deep convictions and carefree expression of God's love. She's blessed with a beautiful singing voice too.

Just bought a book... Prayer by Philip Yancey.
Im gonna go buy all his books!
It's not just inspiring, it's convicting and it really makes you think about who you are, who you're becoming and who you need to be. =)

Here's a quote.

"Prayer is to the sceptic a delusion, a waste of time. To the believer, it represents perhaps the most important use of time."

What's the more important part of our life? I think we really need to make a decision..

"Prosperity may dilute prayer. Christians in developing countries spend less time pondering the effectiveness of prayer and more time actually praying. The 'wealthy' rely on talent and resources to solve immediate problems, and insurance policies and retirement plans to secure the future. We can hardly pray with sincerity, 'Give us this day our daily bread.' when the pantry is stocked with a month's supply of provisions."

It's a lot like what Wee Keong preached on wednesday about not really knowing what we're praying about.

Has our prayer become diluted?? Have we added to much water to what is really meant to be said?

"We have the constant sensation of not enough. Not enough time, not enough rest, not enough exercise, not enough leisure. Where does God fit into a life that already seems behind schedule."

Do we really have time to think about what we lack in this world? In our lives we are behind schedule in doing God's work... =) Let this harvest period be awesome and let us plant the seeds that God has given us and let us then pray for those seeds to grow and not rely on our ownselves... =)

Love you lots,Sera
