– topically: future spouses, salvation, etc…
– write prayers down in a prayer journal so we can look back at them someday
These are great.
But guess what? We can’t keep up with any one of these all of the time. Or maybe it’s just me.
Guess what again? You don’t have to.
I’ve grown to learn there are many different prayers and styles talked about in Scripture, why should we stick to one style or method? I’m not Type A and I bore easily of monotonous activity, so I like to change it up anyways. If you’re like me (ooh, shiny!), this brings you much peace. But if you are more Type A, a jump around approach might find you curled up in the fetal position somewhere.
The good news is that we can be who God made us in every area of life, and that means we can also be who He made us in our prayer life too.
Let’s pray wholeheartedly for our kids. Prayer is powerful. But it doesn’t have to be painful.
