PRAYERLESSNESS

Fidel Castro, the notorious Cuban dictator, recently offered to send monitors to supervise a new presidential election if asked by the United States. As generous as his offer was, I doubt that he will be getting a phone call anytime soon. A communist dictator probably doesn’t have any expertise that the US can use to help grease the wheels of democracy.

I can understand why the US government won’t be asking Castro for help, but I don’t understand why Christians are slow to ask God for help. I know we trust Him. So why do we suffer from an epidemic of prayerlessness?
