Honest and Heartfelt Prayers
Adapted from The Power of Being Thankful
...The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].
If I could only emphasize one thing about prayer, I would tell people that it is so much easier than we think. Thankfully, God has not made prayer complicated; it really is simple. Sometimes people make prayer dry and difficult; sometimes our religious mindsets and “systems” present prayer in such a way that it seems out of reach for many of us.
I tell you the truth when I say that God desires our prayer lives to be natural and enjoyable. He wants our prayers to be honest and heartfelt, and He wants our communication with Him unencumbered by rules, regulations, obligations, and legalism. He intends for prayer to be an integral part of our everyday lives—the easiest thing we do each day.
Prayer of the Day: Father, I thank You that I can speak to You naturally and honestly. Thank You that I can talk to You like a friend, and I can know that You are always there when I need You.
