Pray to God for Urgent Rain
From Sr Monica Shanley IBVM, Strand, Western Cape –a campaign of prayer to God for rain is needed
At this time of severe drought in our country and dire predictions of shortage of food, maize and wheat in particular, and cattle dying for want of water and fodder, a campaign of prayer to God for rain is needed.
Our country, severely in debt already, will need to import millions of tonnes of maize and wheat, compounding increased debt.
It is necessary that in all churches, prayer groups and families, earnest prayer and supplication be made that God will bless us with much-needed rain.
Jesus tells us: Ask and you will receive (Luke 11: 9-10) and St Paul encourages the Philippians: In everything resort to prayer, with thanksgiving, and bring your requests before God (Philippians 4:6).
We have the assurance of the Word of God that prayer will be answered.
