I rejoice in the understanding and knowledge of the power of prayer. I pray about everything. There is nothing I do not discuss with God throughout my day. Some would say God is to busy to hear the little things about our day. I would say that is wrong..... God wants an intimate relationship with us. He wants us to bring him our hurts, our stumbles, our questions as well as our gratitude, joys and triumphs. Prayer changes things because it appeals to the highest power in the Universe. A prayer is not some magic formula or a memorized or recited chant. Prayer is a first person experience with God. It is a yes to the invitation to be open, honest and transparent.... authentic. There is nothing we can hide from God. He already knows what's on our mind and in our hearts. Why not talk about it openly? The first intimate relationship starts with God. It is the model, the foundation on how to "do life" and experience relationships at the highest level. Are you struggling today with anything...big or small? Stop for 30 seconds and take it to God. It doesn't have to be fancy and it doesn't have to be perfect. It will take the burden you are carrying off your shoulders and in that 30 seconds transfer it to God. That is what the gift of prayer is about. Will you join me and experience that power?
