Its no secret around here that I love to run, its been a true place for me to get quiet and have some peace! I used to run before I had kids but now its a big part of my quiet time with the Lord. I run to mostly praise music and spend most of the time talking to God. I like to think that God is just running right beside me and we are in constant contact!
I mean after all, isn't that what God wants most from us.... constant contact? He loves that we involve him in our life, I mean after all he gave us life and we are an image of Him. He loves that we call on him in times of good and bad, and he loves that we talk to him while at a traffic light or while laying in bed.
The bottom line is that we have the world's most powerful weapon within us... PRAYER! It doesn't mean that what we pray for we ultimately get, but it does mean we have a direct line to God.
My challenge to you (and myself) over the next month is to enhance your (mine) prayer life. I yearn for the solid hour or two when I can be one with him in silence and just prayer.... but I have three little ones who have a different plan for our time. So do what you can, keep a journal and make it intentional. I love making prayer a proactive approach to life instead of a reactive action to something that's in our way.
Colossians 4:2 (NLT)
Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart.
James 5:16 (NLT)
Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.
I look forward to this month with all of you!
Much Love!
