Deprecans Deum | Praying to God

"Cornelius was always praying to God" Acts 10:2 (CEV).


                                                                     

All have certain duties and obligations. We get busy with many things in our families, communities, and in our companies. This is a chance for us Christians to keep doing everything as religious people. It means always praying to God. Wherever we are, whatever we do, in our free time and during our job, a Christian is a person of constant prayer.

Besides we are to worship God in any circumstances. We do not need to wait for a comfortable time during Sunday service. Also in ordinary service at home and at work, we ought to keep praying for the world. We are to put an impact on other people and make them follow Christ. We can manage it not by force but by example. As Christians, we should imitate Jesus and help our brothers and sisters. We are to support not only with money but much more with our prayers. 

Thus, we live in communion with angels and saints. If we open our hearts to God's word, we will recognize his voice deep in our souls. We can get surprised how God the Father works miracles in our lives. For our Lord hears our prayers especially when they come from the sincere and humble heart. We will know which decisions to make because we will be acting according to the Holy Spirit.
