## Resource

What do you do in times of desperation, in challenging times that seem hopeless? Do you withdraw in busy activities to keep you engaged trying to avoid the challenge in question? Do you withdraw to other meaningless habits that yield no fruit in the end? For the Christian, God calls him/her to prayer in such moments, and this is what this text in 1 Samuel portrays. Pastor John Musyimi, in this sermon, seeks to show us that desperate times call for desperate prayers!
