​Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you”. Jeremiah 29:12 (AMPC)

Our temptation, when we are in pain; have done something wrong; or when something wrong has been done to us, may be to run away from God and hide. However, wisdom would say it is far better to run to Him, and fast, for that is the very place where we are safe, find rest for our souls, and are healed.

Run to Him at all times, at any time, no matter what. He is waiting always at the ready to respond. Come to Him in confidence; bringing your worries and your cares, for He cares for you. Pour it all out before His all-accepting heart of love—the hurts, fears, the rejection and pain. In the most glorious exchange, He will pour His life, new and fresh, back in again.  He will lift your burdens and replace them with His benefits—bringing you to a banquet of blessings instead!

Prayer is simply talking to God, and you must know how He loves the sound of your voice, whenever you share—even with questions and with cares. He will never close His heart to you when you ask Him for His help! 

Cry aloud with all of your heart, dear one, for He is listening always, and His answers—overflowing with goodness and grace—are assured!
