What's Your Excuse...Hard To Pray?
Wednesday, March 30, 2011 at 11:21AM
Whether you're making a prayer blanket, prayer shawl, or prayer quilt, it might be the praying that's the stumbling block for you.
Praying can be difficult or easy, depending on how you frame it in your mind. If you think prayer is difficult because you’ve heard others pray and you think, I could never pray like that, then praying will be difficult for you.
If you see prayer as simply speaking to someone you love, it will be much easier.
God isn’t interested in fancy words, he’s interested in connecting with you...with whoever's praying.
“... Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace.”
-The Message, Eugene H. Peterson -Matthew 6
