"When you pray, don’t babble on and on as the Gentiles do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again."

Guided Prayer: God, thank you for the opportunity to speak to you how we speak to anyone. We  know that we can have a casual conversation with you without the pressure of having to use fancy terminology. Thank you for letting short, heartfelt prayers be just as powerful as long, heartfelt ones. Give us the courage to come to you when we have little or even nothing to say. Let our ears be  tuned into what you have  to say.

Independent Prayer: Spend the next minute listening to what God is saying to you.
