One of the biggest pitfalls that those of us in ministry leadership face is getting too caught up in the 'doing' of ministry that we cease to simply 'be' with Jesus.
Prayer is meant to be the life-line between Jesus and His followers. It's meant to be the means by which we bring our will into conformity with His. It's meant to be a means through which He shapes us, prepares us, equips us and speaks to us - in every way - for everything.
Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me ~ Jesus (John 15.4).
