Simply Pray

9/21/2015

 
Friends, it feels like confession time!

My cup runneth over this week with wonderful opportunities for my roles with family, work, school, and ordinary life responsibilities. There is not a in-depth post in me this week, not even a cute graphic with suggested scriptures. But there is an invitation!

This week, take a nice deep breath and just pray. No new tips. No suggestions. Just a verse to ponder and an invitation to pray:

Pray with Simplicity

“And when you come before God, don’t turn that into a theatrical production either. All these people making a regular show out of their prayers, hoping for stardom! Do you think God sits in a box seat?

“Here’s what I want you to do: Find a quiet, secluded place so you won’t be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace.

​Matthew 6:5-6 (The Message)
