Rest Praying S3E6


Listen Later

The choices we make with our attention reveal who and what shapes our identity, who and what we worship. Attention on Jesus helps us experience being loved by Him...this is at the heart of starting to pray to Him. Praying with attention on Jesus, His loving us, motivates us to choose His love, His way at a crossroad. Each time we choose Jesus, our identity from selfish moves closer to God's beloved.

Our busy lives challenge attention shifting to God. So we ask Him to help us! He wants to help us pay attention to Love! When we shift attention to Him, our praying changes. Instead of attention on our pain, problems and what we want from God, our attention focuses on His presence. Focusing on God's presence during prayer gets us experiencing being loved. Being loved is what changes our identity because our attention on God begins worship.

When we look with attention on Jesus, we can face truth about Him and ourselves more honestly as we are being loved by Him. This closer movement toward God helps us choose His way for us. God's way brings us to life, love, and truth...moment by moment over time as we as we talk with Him. Then how can we want anything more than to choose His way for us more and more.

Rest at the crossroads praying with attention on Jesus.

Rest praying is life changing!

Moment by moment, be transformed by Love.
