Romans 8:26 (NIV)
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our
weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself
intercedes for us through wordless groans.
Isn't it incredible! Even in those times that my words are
blocked and my heart is heavy, God hears my prayers. It is not because I am
articulate, wise, or faithful enough to pray as I should. No, it is because God
has graciously placed his Spirit in our hearts to make known what my words
cannot capture and my mind cannot verbalize. God hears my groanings, my yearnings,
my heartbreaks, and my heart-cries. He knows what I cannot think, but only
feel. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, he answers those unuttered prayers
with his presence, grace, and power.
Thought for today:
Are my prayers and life a clear path for the Holy Spirit to interpret?
