In transparency – my prayer life stinks. I try. I fail. My mind wanders and drifts.
So I use an app. How many of us have the Bible app on our phones? It’s handy. There are daily prompts that feed us the verse of the day. That prompts us for guided prayer. The Holy Bible, God’s word, right there in my pocket.
Too convenient? Or just right – a proper use of technology to glorify God? I don’t know – my question is not rhetorical – I legitimately ask.
The “Verse of the Day” from my Bible app today. Granted, he was the sinless son of God. But Jesus, when in the flesh and here on earth, offered prayers and pleadings – with a loud cry – to his heavenly father. And he was heard.
I am just vulnerably sharing – maybe I’m whining – maybe I lack faith. But do you ever wonder if your prayers are heard? Maybe I’m praying the wrong prayers. Maybe my prayers disappoint the Almighty.
Tell me about your prayer life.
I try to but fail. I don’t feel heard and have been let down a lot. Maybe I don’t pray right or regularly. I have tried though.
