Enjoy Your Prayer Life

by Michael Reeves

Prayer, then, is not actually a one-way conversation, us to God. No, in prayer God speaks through us to God. We’re brought into the divine fellowship. The Spirit of the Son cries to the Father through us.

Since the Spirit knows our weakness, we can be real with our Father, accepting how babyish we are in our faith, and simply stammer out what’s on our hearts. In fact, that’s just the way to grow in our relationship with God. True intimacy is an acquired thing, something that develops – but it only develops with honesty. So if your prayer life is a bit ropey, I suggest starting again by stammering like a child to a Father. Cry for help. Don’t try to be impressive.
