166: Unpacking the Daybreak Prayer, with Cherie Snyder (Part 4)
Above all else, trust in the slow work of God.
Friends,
Jesus modeled and taught a scandalous and inviting life of prayer.
In the morning, long before dawn, he got up and left the house and went off to a lonely place to pray… (Mark 1:35)
“Find a quiet, secluded place so you won’t be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace.” (Matt. 6:5-15 MSG)
The invitation of Jesus into this sort of intimate prayer life is a radical path of discipleship.
And I want to suggest that discipleship is the path back to secure attachment to the heart of God.
Daily prayer as a practice of presence paves this path and can slowly and steadily root us deeply into God.
But where to start?
How to continue?
The Daybreak Prayer is nothing new. Its heart is the foundational realities of our common faith collected together as a trailhead, a rallying cry, and an anchor for the soul.
It’s simple.
It’s powerful.
And it's meant to be accessible.
Let’s pick up our communal path of prayer again as Cherie and I conclude this four-part series.
For the Kingdom,
Morgan
