Do you pray? 

I’m not talking about just a quick mutter before you eat – I do that too, sometimes. 

I’m referring to a connected, directed, and deep conversation with God on all those tragic or niggling issues in your life. 

One spouse praying – asking, seeking & knocking – can impact a marriage.

Prayer is not magic.  Prayer is not pie-in-the-sky woo-woo.  It’s not a therapy session, or a kvetch, or a negotiation.

Prayer is conversation with the One who understands everything.  The One Who Is Love, is ready and waiting to hear you.

We tend to use prayer as a last resort, but God wants it to be our first line of defense. We pray when there’s nothing else we can do, but God wants us to pray before we do anything at all.

~ Oswald Chambers
