"I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting."
1 Timothy 2:8

In these lines, God explains to us that we can't ashamed to give Him thanks and praise Him wherever we are. We can't be ashamed of all the work He has done for us in our own lives. He asks us to pray. We are allowed to pray everywhere!! We can pray any time of the day and just call to Him. That's what His word says. When He says, "lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting", He is simply saying we shouldn't be shy, scared or ashamed of praying and worshipping Him. It shouldn't matter what's around us or what people may think. God's love is far much greater!! We can't be too cool to do what He says and give Him thanks because He can easily take away what we have today. By just doing what He says, God can remove our miseries and replace it with something extraordinary!!
