Prayer for Today :
Heavenly Father,
E. (Eli) Stanley Jones (1884–1973) was a 20th century Methodist Christian missionary and theologian. He is remembered chiefly for his interreligious lectures to the educated classes in India, thousands of which were held across the Indian subcontinent during the first decades of the 20th century. He is also the founder of the Christian Ashram movement. He is sometimes considered the "Billy Graham of India".
Father, He began "ashrams", spiritual growth and development program, by asking people to write "What is your need today? Be honest. No one will see what you've written."
Father, sometimes, we are scared, alarmed, disturbed, troubled or worried when people asked us what we need. We are afraid that people may reject us or make us feel embarrassed.
But Father, when we pray to you, help us to pray to You openly, since You know us so well, that we don't really need to hide anything from You, because You know them all! Father, help us not to fear hiding our lack, our need, or our poverty. Father, there is no shame for us to ask for assistance? Father, help us to put down our pride and submit to You and You alone, for You are our Almighty God. Allow us to rest in peace within Your love and embrace.
In Christ's glorious Name we pray, Amen.
