Bible Question:
Why is prayer such a difficult thing for Christians? I have been reading SECRETTS OF FAITH WELL LIVED, by Christopher Coppernoll. In the book Coppernoll interviews 14 different authors. Like Max Lucado, Brennan Manning, Steve Brown, and others well known. Every one spoke of how little Christians pray. Interesting was how many pastors admitted to having such a problem with their prayer life. With so much effort as we put into this Forum, do we have a full prayer life? I an searching for someone who has a prayer life that can tell me how they go about their prayer life that makes them feel effective. Thank you for who ever answers. agape, justme |
Bible Answer: justme, I have heard of something where you keep a prayer journal, and leave space for writing down when God answers that prayer, seems kind of neat, also helpful to write it down, as it seems to help me keep focused and not just vague God is coool, now give me what I want stuff, also shows me where I do that very thing, prayer life improving by writing it down, might try it wolfe |
