One of the things that can be our greatest encouragement can also be one of our greatest discouragements as a follower of Christ is prayer. There’s nothing more encouraging and faith building than to see God respond to our need that we have brought to him. But what about the many times we ask for something and God seems silent on it. It can be one of the biggest reasons people turn away from God. Is there a way we can understand God’s silence and not be discouraged? Is it a maturity thing, or is it just something we have to accept about God?
This is what our discussion will be on today as we are joined by Carla Davis and Julie Rape.
