Good prayer? Bad prayer?

Today I heard people saying at church, "oh he or she can pray very well!". Hmmm....when I heard this statement, it caught my attention. I stopped and wondered for a while what was wrong. What does it mean by praying well? Isn't it just having a conversation with God? How can a person know it was "good"?

Some people don't see beyond the "great prayers"- which comes from a vibrant relationship with God yet care about what words are being used and how much scripture was being quoted or even how enthusiastically the prayer was prayed.

A lot of people are afraid to pray because they think they can't say what they are supposed to say and are afraid of making mistakes. Why afraid of making mistakes when it is just a conversation with God?

I am so blessed

I am so thankful for what God has given me in Japan. I am thankful for the amazing Bible Study Fellowship here in Japan.

What wonderful works God has been doing here. I am super excited for God's cultivation in Japan, it's amazing!! I am thankful for the church I belong to. I am thankful for my bible study leader and lovely group members who greet me with love and care. The first time I went to the church, I was warmly welcomed by the people and never felt left out even for a minute!

Talk to me God

What is the greatest treasure in life? Through my devotion, I saw that Jacob found his ultimate treasure in life and in the end he embraced it with thankfulness and joy. He found Jesus by his side. He was overjoyed that God of Abraham and Isaac talked to him personally. After he encountered with God, his life turned around. My personal prayer today is that I would draw near to God and invite Him to talk with me personally and privately. Even a silent whisper may be the greatest treasure I gain today. What is God telling me today? >Be renewed and transformed. Increase your thirst for me and I will bless you abundantly. I have never promised a smooth life but what I give, the world cannot give you. Seek it with all your heart. Love me and love the people, my child. Pray for this world and bless them with the hands I have given and blessed you.
