Cry Out

Ever get woken up in the middle of the night by your baby's crying?  They are trying to tell you something is wrong…feed me, change me, hold me…

Is your prayer life like that?  When you read Psalm 141, how does it sound in your head?  If you were to read it out loud, would it be monotone (using your best Ray Ramono voice)?  Or would it be passionate (like Dick Vitale).  Check out the New Living Translation…notice the exclamation marks.

Psalm 141:1 – “O Lord, I am calling to you. Please hurry!   Listen when I cry to you for help!”

Are you crying out to the Lord in your prayer time? Or is it just routine?
