Find your flow

Have we ever said to ourselves: 'Right, I've a free evening, I'll just pray for the next 30 minutes', then four minutes in we've covered everything we can think of and we're done. It's easy to start feeling guilty about it. Classic guilt-train destinations: 'Wow, God must be pretty peeved at me, I can't even concentrate for five minutes', 'I must be one of those bad Christians', etc.

It's OK, it happens. Instead of beating ourselves up about it, use whatever's on our mind as something to pray about. Our work, a relationship or a health matter - if it's something that's weighing us down then God wants us to tell him about it. 'He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honour him' (Psalm 91:15 NIV). It's clear that God will have our backs when we call out to him for help. For those who need a little more convincing, Jesus said 'If you serve me, you must go with me. My servants will be with me wherever I am. If you serve me, my Father will honour you' (John 12:26 CEV).

The more we offer everything up to God, the more our prayer life will flow into our everyday life. The more we find our flow, the more we'll experience God working beautifully and supernaturally in our lives.



So what now? That secret place you found yesterday. Get settled in it and pray through the first things that came into your mind this morning.
