taking time to pray

how often do I pray? I'd honestly say...once a weeek at most, which is sad to say. I've been even having these devotions everyday in the morning, and sometimes I skip prayer and decide to just study the Word. Just from reading the Bible, no one was ever busier, no one ever carried greater burdens than Jesus, but He often took time out to pray! Time after time you see that He got up very early, or went away into the mountains to pray. He was totally dependent on God, leaving his sorrows and fears with God.

I have at times experienced this kind of of prayer, yet I do not know why I do not experience it everyday! It's definitely possible, and God wants you to do it. The silence in my soul allows me to hear the voice of God, yet often I get clouded by the noise and blunders of the unimportant things. True rest and peace are found.

If you read this post Eden, take time to share your needs, trust me you won't be disappointed. Ask for wisdom to deal with the pressures of life, and He will give you rest. Do it...now!
