Need a reason to pray? Prayer reminds you that you’re never really alone. It may seem strange, but the fact of the matter is that even with all of the ways we have to connect with others these days, the research shows that people feel more isolated than ever. Maybe you do, too, sometimes. But prayer reminds that we’re actually never alone, and that God is always with us, that “bidden or not bidden, God is always present,” always caring, always loving, always wanting what is best for us. And sometimes we all need to be reminded of that. Read more on our blog: https://www.firstchurchkent.org/post/five-reasons-to-pray

Did you know? AA meets in the Parish Hall on Mondays and Fridays at 8pm. Anyone with a desire to stop drinking is welcome, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, income or profession. And it’s free. You can just sit and listen and learn more about recovery, or you can share about your situation. It’s completely up to you.

Need a reason to pray? Prayer helps you be more empathetic. Sure, when you pray some of your prayers are going to be about you—but they shouldn’t all be. Intercessory prayer, when you pray for the needs of others, gives you a chance to show some concern for others, to try to see life from a larger point of view, to feel more connected to the world around you and to those who share the world with you. It’s a chance to “love your neighbor as yourself,” as Jesus would say. Read more on our blog: https://www.firstchurchkent.org/post/five-reasons-to-pray

Need a reason to pray? Prayer lets you bring your personal concerns before God. You know, we’ve all got stuff going on in our lives: relationships, jobs, families, and our physical, emotional and mental health, to name just a few. Some of that stuff is great, but others of it—maybe not so much. And sometimes, you just need a place to put all of the stuff going on in your life—the good, the bad, all of it. And prayer gives you a place to put all of that. Read more on our blog: https://www.firstchurchkent.org/post/five-reasons-to-pray

Need a reason to pray? Prayer connects you to something bigger that yourself. The world’s a big place, filled with all kinds and sorts of people, and we Christians believe that over, in, above, beneath, and through it all is God, who is all in all. And prayer gives you a great opportunity to move a bit beyond the personal and the mundane and connect to something larger—and that connection can provide direction, and sense of purpose, and a greater ability to handle what life throws at you.
