Pray First...

“We tend to use prayer as a last resort,

 but God wants it to be our first line of defense. 

We pray when there's nothing else we can do, 

but God wants us to pray before we do anything at all.

Most of us would prefer,

 however, to spend our time doing something 

that will get immediate results. 

We don't want to wait for God to resolve matters

 in His good time because His idea of 'good time'

 is seldom in sync with ours.”   

Oswald Chambers
