I like prayer. Now, that’s a pretty
straightforward and simple statement, but it’s true. Prayer for me doesn’t need to be highly ritualized,
although it can be. Prayer doesn’t need
to be a solemn event, although it could be.
Prayer doesn’t need to include tears, but sometimes
it does.
Prayer is the time I set aside to talk with God. Sometimes I talk directly to God; sometimes I talk to Jesus; and sometimes I seek out the Holy Spirit. Being a Triune God – three Gods in One – I know the prayer gets to the right spot no matter what.
I sometimes laugh in my prayers. I occasionally tell God a joke – I start out with, ‘Stop me if you’ve heard this one’. I share with God the events of my life – the good and the bad.
I like prayer. It draws me closer to God and refreshes me.
