Is it crazy to stop in front of a business, a school, a restaurant, or a church and to pray? By prayer, I just mean to stand on the public sidewalk, with ones hands down to your side, eyes open and just silently ask God to give his favor to that business, school or church.
Is it crazy?
Sure. It is crazy. But it is the crazy that is based upon a history of God answering the simple prayers of everyday people like you and I.
It is the crazy where you and I take a small portion of our time and notice others and ask that God would work his will out for their lives.
It is the crazy that sees the world beyond just its material facade. Stopping to pray brings with it the conviction that God can and will intervene in this world.
Am I in front of your business looking like I’m not doing anything? Well, I might actually be doing a lot.
And it might be crazy.
