Today we learnt that the Y in PRAY stands for YIELD (give way, or surrender).

When we pray we need to realize that God knows best and although we may ask him for something, we need to YIELD, or surrender, what we want to what he wants.

Even Jesus did that. On the night before he was nailed to the cross, he asked God to take away the suffering he was going to face, but then he said, ‘not what I want, but what you want, Father’.

It’s not always easy to YIELD to what God wants, but he will give us the strength to do it – we just have to ask!

Our Bible memory verse for this week is,

1 Peter 4:19 … trust your lives to the God who created you, for he will never fail you.
