Three Ways to Strengthen Your Prayer Life by Elizabeth Peale Allen (on Guideposts.org) suggests these approaches
- Change your prayer posture
- Offer your day to God
- Pray a balanced prayer
Elizabeth shares details on reserving a time in your day and components of prayer, among several others. Her full article is worth the read, for sure.
ACTION: Do you have a “daily prayer” on your “to do list?” This can be an official list or some other methodical approach for coming to God in prayer? Praying shows up on my electronic reminders daily, including elements of this prayer from Elizabeth’s article:
Almighty God, Today I offer myself completely to you: all my thoughts, all my words, all I do. Make my every movement a living prayer; help me unite myself to your son Jesus Christ in heart, mind and soul. For Jesus’ sake, Amen.
Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit!
