Personalize Prayer

The Lord gives us so many gifts but the most astonishing is that personal relationship. We are given the same opportunity we give our own children. We love them so and are pleased beyond words when we have that special time with them. Yet, when our children are talking to us are they distracted…are they investing themselves into the conversation or are we getting lip service? How are we treating God… I pray we are not giving lip service to our Father, but we are personalizing our conversations with Him…making our prayers about God and not ourselves. We are praising Him for His love…thanking Him for all we have and all that we will be. The more we praise God and follow His commands the more we are blessed. He wants us to receive all He has…to trust in times of trials and to rejoice as we walk through our difficulties with Him. He is our strength…so as we turn our thoughts and prayers to Him let us open our hearts and talk to our Father. Rejoice knowing He has heard our pleas and has already prepared the way…. Psalm 29:1-2 Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Give to the Lord the glory due to His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. He hears all our conversations…and answers…Praise God!
