One thing is for certain, God intends for us to pray and when we intentionally focus on prayer He increases our burden. At least that is the evidence I have found in this journey. Nearly every conversation, every appointment, every encounter stirs me to greater prayer. Last night I even dreamed about a couple of individuals that stirred my heart to prayer for them this morning. I woke up with a church member who is having some surgery today on my mind and it stirred me to pray for her.

I am certainly not saying I have reached the pinnacle of a prayer life. If anything the last few days have shown me how lacking my prayer life has been. I will say we can have confidence when we diligently seek the Lord in prayer and yearn to draw near to Him, He certainly will draw near to us.

How will we pray today?
