I too struggle with prayer not knowing what to say to get an answer back.I go about my busy life and not having time to put aside time for God.I need to do that to keep me close to Him in my everyday struggles of my life.I enjoyed reading the article and found it very helping and showing me how to pray.



Thanks,Kimberly

I think daily prayer became my rule upon reading Andrew Murray's sentiment in another of his books.

Then again, if I don't remember God every day, what if one day He decides to forget about me for the day? OH-OH.

I pray while walking from here to there. Waiting in checkout lines. Whenever I've got time handed to me that I'm "stuck with" because I can't get things to move at my pace.

And I often fall asleep praying -- purposely; it makes praying the last thing I did today. And "Amen. Good morning, Jesus!" upon awakening -- start of every day.

I heard Becky talk about this in 2001 and began journaling prayers and reading the One Year Bible every day and my life has never been the same since! It's been amazing to have a tangible record of prayers and see how God puts ideas into your heart and then fulfills them. It's been the best decision of my life. The only suggestion I have is that you should formulate a prayer journal to your own style and personality. I whittled mine down to three sections--My Prayers, God's Answers, & Thanks. In "My Prayers," I include the praise and requests all in one, and I use a small three ring binder with blank paper and three tabs.
