One of the characteristics that Jesus most often mentions in relation to prayer is perseverance. However, I wonder if sometimes our microwave culture hasn't sometimes made us into "microwave" prayers: If it's not ready in a minute or two, we wonder what's going on!! There is SO much power in persistently coming before God in FAITH for those things that we know are God's will. It may take months or even years. Let's be watchmen! Let's not hold our peace!
