Powerful Prayer

We're going to finish our seven days with Daniel by looking at one of his prayers.
It's a prayer he prays as he contemplates the hope that the exile will soon be over.

He's deeply convinced of a couple of things:
1. That God's heart toward Israel is Love.
2. That God is righteous.
3. That the Israelites brought exile on themselves through their sin.
4. That God is merciful and forgives.
5. That God hears our pleas.

Please read the prayer slowly and thoughtfully.

Feel the intimacy,
sense the dependence,
be buoyed by the hope,
recognize the honesty
and experience the devotion.

We can pray like this too...
