If you google the word PRAYER there is a lot of information. It makes my head spin to see how much is out there. It really doesn't have to be that complicated.
Prayer is just talking to God. There is no method, right or wrong way or possiblity to fail. Just start talking. Talk to Him when you walk, when you work, when you play, when you drive, relax or interact. Talk when you are thankful, in need and unsure. Talk when you are happy. When you are sad. When you feel nothing at all.
According to Jeremiah 17:5-8 'This is what the LORD says: "Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans and turn their hearts away from the LORD. They are like stunted shrubs in the desert, with no hope for the future. They will live in the barren wilderness, on the salty flats where no one lives. But blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit." '
How do you go from the barren wilderness to the riverbank? Make the Lord your hope and confidence. Start talking to Him. Prayer is the conversation. It is the starting point in any relationship. Just start talking. |
