From Kayiwa Fred Nockia earlier in the month: Hello, am very sick of fever, and the doctor says I should not study but have bedrest. So I need your
prayers. However, here is my thinking:
I feel so much good and am impresed when I see young generations getting involved in hard work instead of getting involved in drug abuse. I always look forwad to ensure that the young generation gets and becomes job creators other than job seekers. However, I need to see that talents are eveloped in each youth.

About a week later, Fred writes:
Am happy that am now fine and managed to wirte this on my bed rest to all members of ABC4All:
CONVERSATION WITH GOD
How can we be sure God hears us when we pray?
"Then you will call upon me and come and PRAY TO
ME,and I WILL LISTEN TO YOU. You will seek me and find
me when you seek me and find me when you seek me with
all your heart."Jeremiah 29:12,13
What assurance did Jesus give that he will hear and
answer our prayers?
"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek
and you will find: knock and the door will be opened
to you.":---Luke:11:9
Prayer is two-way conversation.
That's what Jesus promised.
"Here I am. I stand at the door and knock. If any one
hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and
eat with him,and he with me": Revelation 3:20.
How is it possible to sit down and have a nice evening
of dinner conversation with Christ? First, by telling
Him everything that's on our hearts in prayer. Second,
Listen carefully. As we meditate in prayer, God can
speak to us directly. And as we read the word of God
devotionally, God can speak to us directly. And as we
read the word of God devotionally, God will speak to
us through its pages.
Prayer can become a way of life for the Christian.
"PRAY CONTINUALLY; give thanks in all circumstances,
for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
1Thessalonianans 5:16-18
How can we 'pray continually'? Do we have to say on
our knees all the time or constantly repeat phrases of
adoration or petition? Of course not. But we are to
live so closely in touch with Jesus that we feel to
speak to Him anytime, anywhere.
"In the crowds of the street, in the midst of a
business engagement, we may send up a petition to GOD
and plead for divine guidance..............We should
have the door of the heart open continually and our
invitation going up that Jesus may come and abide as a
heavenly guest in the soul."
One of the best ways to develop this kind of
intimate relationship is to learn to meditate as we
pray.
"May my meditation be pleasing to Him, as I
rejoice in the Lord."
Psalm:104:34
