I am noticing God really convicting me for the need for more prayer in my life. I can read the Bible then my prayers are so shallow. All I did was ask God to do things instead of really using the time to get to know my God.

I have been studying all of the passages in the Bible on Jesus’ prayer life, and what a rebuke it is to me. If the Son of God spent tons of time in prayer communicating to God how much more should I (lowly man) spend in communication to God. So I practiced what I was learning on the last plane trip. I would just close my eyes and talk to God about everything and before I knew it I had been talking to God for a long time. God has been so good to me to teach me how to pray. This whole trip has to be bathed in prayer and what better time to learn from God? – Bridget

Wow, thanks for sharing what you are learning personally on prayer, Bridget. I really needed to hear this and it has encouraged my heart. Oh that I would take it to heart!

God Bless!
