When faced with challenges or difficult situations, instead of exhausting all other options, I am being intentional about making prayer a first response. Prayer can help to provide us with comfort, guidance, strength, and peace during times of need. By making prayer our initial response, we are acknowledging our reliance on a higher power and seeking divine intervention and support. This shift in perspective can help to deepen our faith, strengthen our relationship with God, and ultimately lead to more positive outcomes in our lives.
