Prayer is me talking now, yelling now, crying now, singing now, giving up now. Prayer brings me to sit and listen to God. God who gave up his life that I have a chance at living. I am not in control. God has a to-do list for me that I can never finish.
Prayer is less the flowery words or distant experience.
Prayer can be you talking now, yelling now, crying now, singing now, giving up now. Prayer brings you to sit and listen to God. Prayer brings life.
