This last week we got to watch ‘Abel’s Field’ and I thought it might be helpful just to reflect on some of the points brought out in the story:
- prayer is not a cold religious habit – it gives us an audience with God and its vital we take the opportunity to pour out our hearts to Him. If you’re going through difficult circumstances, tell God how it is. Whilst it would be wrong to encourage venting your frustrations to God, we should be honest and cast our care upon Him
- We all have issues to wrestle with – try and be a listening ear and encourage others as well as looking to others to do the same for you.
- If you’re struggling with something, don’t drag everyone else down with you, ask for help. If you don’t the issue will likely eat away at you until it becomes unmanageable and out of control.
