• Soft Answers: Healing Broken Mother-Child Relationships

• Developing a Disciplined Prayer Life: Beyond the Prayer Closet

  Developing a disciplined prayer life is about building a genuine relationship with God that involves both speaking and listening, rather than depending on others to pray us through difficult seasons. • Prayer requires both watching (discerning God's movement) and praying to avoid temptation• Avoid being like hypocrites who pray to be seen by others rather than connecting with God• The effectiveness of prayer is measured by its fruit, not how it sounds• Create dedicated time for prayer after dismissing crowds or completing responsibilities• Prayer is a two-way conversation - many struggle because they're not listening for God's response• We have direct access to God through Christ and don't need intermediaries• Prayer doesn't require elaborate practices - even brief, authentic conversations with God are effective• When confessing to God, leave negativity behind before moving forward• Simple check-ins with God throughout the day maintain your connection• Jesus modeled stepping away from crowds to commune with the FatherLord, I thank you that this day is going to be amazing. Thank you for the blessings of today and that everything we do today is going to be successful. We're going to be filled with joy, receiving all the good news and blessings. Remove any distractions and give us the most amazing day. We love you, amen.Support the showCome join us at our virtual events monthly. Visit our website to learn more.
