2. The Bible tells we have 70 years+
Psalms 90: (NIV)
The days of our years are three score years and ten;
and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years,
yet is their strength labour and sorrow;
for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
Psalms 90: (Message Bible)
We live for seventy years or so
(with luck we might make it to eighty),
And what do we have to show for it? Trouble.
3. How long will you live for?
<50 years?
50 years?
60 years?
70 years?
80 years?
More than 80?
4. Just Imagine:
• You have it all
• Plenty of money
• Lovely wife and son
• Enjoyable job
• Nice car
• Long holidays
• Lots of friends
5. Next day at work:
Collapse, heart attack, stop breathing,
ambulance to hospital, coma, little hope…
9. Acts 17:22
So Paul, standing before the council, addressed
them as follows:
"Men of Athens, I notice that you are very
religious in every way, for as I was walking along
I saw your many shrines. And one of your altars
had this inscription on it: 'To an Unknown God.'
This God, whom you worship without knowing,
is the one I'm telling you about!”
15. Each table to discuss their
thoughts on:
• Why we pray?
• How we can pray?
• When we should pray?

We all have a tendency to believe there is more to life, a God to turn to when the chips are really down….The God whom they are praying to, can be known, not just in the emergencies, but in everyday life.
