I like the God-inspired concept of praying without ceasing. No, I am not saying that I pray 24/7. I find that it is easy for me to pray when I pray as things come to mind. I am not an eloquent speaker. Let's face it... I have a very short attention span too. I find that my prayer life consists of short "popcorn" prayers throughout the day. Do I have times when I spend more time in conversations with the Lord? Yes, I have times when my prayers are more lengthy. I must admit that things do steal my focus away from God's presence. In recent months, I have found that my prayers have been meditative responses on the Scriptures that I have either read or that have come to mind. I have found that God's promises lead to an outpouring of my heart to God. I love that I can be myself when I communicate to God. I do not need to use fancy words. God's Holy Spirit puts my limited ramblings into the right words for me. I am NOT THERE YET. God knows that. He still loves to hear my voice and welcomes me into His presence in prayer.
