Want to change your life dramatically?
Pray.
I think I'm starting to get it.
We were created to need a relationship with God & a life cannot and will not be full with out it.
I'm not only talking about the occasional, "God please help me (or them)" mini prayers.
I'm sure anyone reading this has been talking with a friend (or you are the friend) who just cannot stop checking facebook or pinterest on their smart phone. Ashamedly I am so guilty of doing this to people. What I'm reading has my attention more than my friend trying to talk to me about something (whether I would've ever admitted it or not). If every conversation I had with my husband my eyes were on my smart phone or computer screen our relationship would suffer a great deal. So often prayer is like that-- a hit and miss prayer life full of distractions that keep me from intimately connecting with the Creator, our Savior. How can we change and give God our full attention, with out interruption? How can we change and have a conversation with God? Ask the Holy Spirit for help and follow His leading. Amazing things happen when uninterrupted, undistracted prayer time happens in a person's life on a daily basis. So many people can attest to it. God not only answers prayer, but He does a great work in our hearts and lives through it, not to mention in the lives of those we pray for. He is so much more amazing than we give Him credit for-- and trust me He deserves all the credit. Prayer-- a relationship with Him-- is the very thing meant to get us through this life.
Galatians 8:28. He works all things together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose.
