Feeling like you want to pray more? Here are some ideas:
- Find a quiet spot in your house where you can be alone to pray. Sometimes it helps to write your prayers down in a prayer journal. It is fun to look back and see that ways God answered.
-Remember, prayer is just talking to God, like you would talk to your father! He loves you and He hears you!
Prayer is when we take the time to talk to God. We can talk to God about anything! We can tell Him things that are going on around us. We can praise Him for the things He is doing in our lives. We can say we are sorry for something we have done wrong that is sin against Him. Another part of prayer is becoming quiet and still to listen if there is anything God wants to say to us. I'm not meaning in a loud big voice (although that can happen if God wants it to- He can do anything!) I mean in a quiet way in your heart, God sometimes to speak to us.
Think about it: What are some things we can talk about to God when we pray? How much does God care to hear about all the little (or big) things that may be on our hearts and minds?
Read Jeremiah 33:3. Isn't that an amazing promise?
God uses prayer to grow us closer to Him!
