A Prayer for Encouragement in the Waiting Season - Your Daily Prayer - July 9

If waiting is you down, let this prayer help you notice the quiet, steady ways God is still blessing you.

What Is Prayer?

Prayer isn’t a ritual that depends on closing our eyes and putting on holy faces. We don’t have to kneel or sit. We can pray while walking, driving, or working. God responds to a two word cry for help in the middle of a busy afternoon, just like He does to a focused prayer time after reading Scripture in the morning. Praying doesn’t have to be complicated. God delights in any simple words we offer Him.
