Prayer
/Here is a great video on prayer. It is hard to understand at times because of the man's accent so you may have to watch it several times. In it he is talking about Easter but I think the learnings about prayer apply any time of year.
In the video he also talks about the Examen Prayer. It is an ancient prayer practice. Here is an adapted version to what he describes in the video where you pray in the morning and evening:
In The Morning
Be still. Breathe in and say ‘abba’ - exhale and say ‘I belong to you’ - be aware of God’s presence
Where will I be tempted to resist God today?
How can I work with God today?
In The Evening
Be still. Breathe in and say ‘abba’ - exhale and say ‘I belong to you’ - be aware of God’s presence
Where did I resist God today?
Where did I work with God today?
The heart of The Father is open, Jesus is the door, and prayer is the key.
