Размышления о молитве.
Сейчас, я с супругой сидим в поезде и наслаждаемся горными пейзажами Карпат. Лесистые горы просыпаются после прохладной ночи and wrapped up the morning haze. All around is full of coolness and freshness of the mountain summer morning. Contemplating this, sneaking into a desire to stop time, so that it sank, and stay in this moment forever, enjoying the beauty of the landscape.
Wheels train steadily tapped past the rush village buried in greenery and the morning sun. Everything inside the crowded ineffable, but quite palpable, powerful as the tide of the ocean, a feeling of joy and peace.
So nice to be in the middle of it all God's creation! But how much more pleasant to be with Him Who created all this. Fair to the question: "Is it possible whether to be with God, and how? "I believe the answer is simple, but at the same time, very deep - in prayer!
be with God in prayer can!
reasons and motives for prayer there may be many, and some of them we will. 
Today we talk about prayer, request, and on this occasion I would like to tell the story:
Vera George Mueller Today we talk about prayer, request, and on this occasion I would like to tell the story: Once, an American preacher named Dr. AT Pearson crossed the Atlantic and came specially in Bristol, England, to meet George Muller. He had heard about George Mueller, his faith, and wanted to meet with this person.
Mr. Mueller was a great host. He spent its for the five orphanages and told the story of each of them. At the end of the day he brought him home to feed. He decided it was too too late to let the guest and asked him to stay for the night. He said Dr. Pearson, that before going to bed he would like to pray with him, if he does not mind. Dr. Pearson thought: "I came just for this. I want to hear how this man to pray. When he talks to God probably around must be the thunder and lightning, should be an earthquake. "He was extremely surprised." Mr. Mueller has never raised his voice. He spoke quietly with God, as if talking. At the end of prayers He just reminded God that in orphanages 2,000 orphans who need their breakfast and the kitchen - Roll the ball. AT Pearson almost fell off his chair! you certainly be interested in continuation of this story. In this city, was the man who owned a large bakery. At two o'clock in the morning, he woke up, got dressed and went to the manager of his factory. He woke manager and said: "I want to deliver to the orphanage eating enough for breakfast." Manager was a bit annoyed and said: "You woke me up just to to say it? Are you sure that is all that you want to tell me? "The owner said:" No, I brought them food, enough for a week. "Then he added:" However, bring them enough food for a month, I also have to sleep in the end! "
George Muller prayed for every meal, every day, every month, every year. For 63 years they never miss a single meal - and they, the children never had to wait more than 30 minutes.
George Muller has been unwavering and, at the same time as a child's dependence on God's answer to his prayer of faith. He was an ordinary man who had learned to trust God, unusual, but what about you?
If a person believes God and wants to live with Him - He will not be ashamed: For the Scripture says: "whosoever believeth in him should not be ashamed" (Romans 10:11). But it is important to remember that, as we talked in my last letter: "Many people tried to use God for their fulfillment, but it is opposed to God's nature and is doomed to failure. You were created for God, not vice versa ".
Questions for reflection:
I pray to God? What is the cause, motive of my prayers?
Think about it and, if you have questions, be sure to write!
