They did this song at church today. Makes me happy.
I am a terrible pray-er. I just have a hard time focusing and every time I try so hard to not do a "to-do" list for God it still comes out that way. Even the good things like "Show me your will." come out like commands. I hate it.
Lately I have been trying to really pray during night time feedings or the early morning ones. I need HIM. I need Him to saturate my heart and mind. My days and nights. My conversations and my inner thoughts. On my own I fall so short of what He desires from me. It is SO easy to get caught up in myself when I am not caught up in Him.
Awhile ago I did the Whispers of Hope book by Beth Moore that has sections to write out daily prayer. Off the top of my head I don't remember what her acronym stands for but it is something like
P-raise
R-epent
A-sk
Y-ield
But I think she does PRAYER instead of PRAY. I need to pray. I need Him.
she loves acronyms ha ha
ReplyDeletei love her
ditto on your post
i try to just start with telling him i'm thankful---which i'm sure falls into the praise category
