A Prayer for the Night Before Change - Your Nightly Prayer - August 29

As we prepare to close the book on another month, maybe you’re looking back over the past year and longing for God’s comfort.

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.
