The three hours I was awake in church

I slept almost all daytime except for the Sunday service.

I felt I could sleep until evening after I had breakfast.

I woke up at 10 a.m. and went to church anyway.

Surprisingly, in spite I had limped to church with leaning on my umbrella as a stick, I could stand the sound of worship songs I usually felt too loud to stand, and sang in tune, and was able to follow of the speed people say the Lord's Prayer.

Today, I learned the attitude of prayer from Matthew 6:5~.

I looked back on myself if my prayer was something to show people, especially people praying together.

I learned that a prayer is 1 to 1 session between God and me, and hospitality to God.

At work, I often have an opportunity to learn about customer satisfaction hospitality. Listening to today's message in the context I want to learn more about hospitality, even if it's not at all what I've been good at with my extremely limited interest.

I also learned that I want to mean it when I say a prayer like Lord's Prayer.
It's fortunate for me to learn that I've learned Lord's Prayer by heart, but to be honest, sometimes I feel a pain in my mind as if my heart were pierced with the words, "have you really forgiven him, for the pain from his remark?", or "don't you think your daily food cooked for granted?". I learned that when I pray, whether I really mean is important.

I also learned that when I ask something for God, I steadfastly do.
Sometimes, I'm not sure at all the picture God have on me, and this is what I need to ask for steadfastly.
