NYNY Week 1: Pray without Ceasing

I've been meditating on 1 Thess. 5:17 lately: "Pray without ceasing." Try as I might to maintain a continual attitude of prayer, I get distracted by the million other things that vie for my attention. Consequently, I often lose sight of that goal.


Yet my days are sprinkled with enough mindless tasks that it's easy to pick up the conversation with God wherever I left off, provided I make a point to do so. Some of my favorite multi-tasking opportunities include praying while:


- folding laundry

- climbing stairs

- washing dishes

- nursing babies

- riding bikes

- taking showers

- falling asleep


When and where do you squeeze in extra prayer time? Please share. I'm eager to add to my list!

Corina Treece Excellent advice. I also find myself praying in the shower quit often. Another "prayer closet" occrs while making my bed in the morning and while driving when the children are quiet or I am alone in the car.
