Prayer?

Wednesday night was very cool for me! I hope it was for you too!
We talked about prayer and what it meant to talk and listen to God. Have you ever noticed that a lot of time when we pray it's a BIG long list of thank you's? God thanks for this and thanks for that and thanks that we could come to you and say thank you! Who talks like that? That's not how we communicate with each other so why would we talk to God like that? Don't get me wrong we need to thank God every day for all He has done for us mainly Jesus, BUT we can't limit ourselves to a quick thank you check off list!

Try the challenge: Pray and only allow yourself one thank you, learn to use other words to express your heart the the Lord. Be honest with Him, remember anything else is just acting. He can see right through it! You may fool me, but you can't full the One who knows you best!

What does it mean to listen to God? Wow, that's tough! You only hear His voice through His word! Get it in your heart, mind, life, and voice will begin to become clear!

Jesus can't wait to talk to you! He knows your heart know matter what words you use, but begin to speak clearly and from your heart. Be honest with Him and enjoy your time with Him!

What is better than hanging out and talking with the creator!
We will be studying this for the next several weeks!

I Love you!
