Talk, Ask, Thank -- Pretty Simple, Really

I’ve got to share a bit of inspiration and clarity with you. Regarding prayer, 'how to pray,' etc.
-- it's easier than you might think:


Philippians 4:6-7 --
“Do not be anxious about anything,
but in everything, by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving,
present your requests to God.
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding,
will guard your hearts and your minds
in Christ Jesus.”


One key phrase: ‘In everything.”

Everything.

I encourage you to take a moment and simply talk with Him today. Ask (petition) Him for help with something today. Say ‘Thank you, Jesus’ for something, today.

It can be simple, if we let it be. Too often, ‘religion’ gets in the way and complicates the Truth.

It can be as easy as, “Lord, I’m not sure why you’re letting me go through this right now, but please help? Please bless this situation? Thank you, Jesus, for loving me.”

Take comfort in knowing that our Lord, our Savior, is almighty. He is omnipotent, and omnipresent.

He does hear you.

So, give it a go why don’t you, right now?

If you’re already okay with all this, great. How about stopping someone else in their tracks today, then -- and help them to stop worrying over something?

Be a blessing! Share this simple truth with them.

Philippians 4, verses 6-7 is a great comfort, as it’s meant to be. Go comfort someone, and help them learn to, or get back to, or get comfortable with praying.

May God bless your efforts, and His peace be with you.

I want, hope, and pray for only the best for you.

Merry Christmas!
