You need to ap- proach Him with your own strengths, weaknesses, uniqueness, and everything else that so wonderfully dis- tinguishes you from every- one else. God enjoys meeting you He hears my voice" (Psalm 55:17, NIV). God is far too creative to insist that every person interact with Him in exactly the same way. He de- signed each of us differently. When you say, "Lord, teach me to pray," you're asking Him to teach you to pray in a distinctly personal way, and to enable your prayers to be easy, natural expressions of who you are. You need to go before things as we work together to exalt the Lord. Sunday services 10 a.m. 124 W. Washington We are expecting good OAKLAND CITY FULL GOSPEL and 6 p.m.; Thursday 6 (O.C. time).
