How To Organize Your Prayer Life

Is it just me or is keeping an organized and intentional prayer life a major challenge? It’s so easy to have prayer lists and requests stashed in multiple apps, random sticky notes, church bulletins, and in your already cluttered brain.

Who can remember everything and everyone they need to pray for? It’s overwhelming!

That’s why we can’t neglect our prayer life. Fortunately, with the steps I’m going to share with you today, keeping track of your prayers and petitions to God will be so much easier!

Plus, with one of my methods, you can record your prayers anywhere! So if you’re ready to spend more time with God in prayer, please join me as I share with you how to organize your prayer life.

Let’s get started with learning how to find time to pray.

Giving It To God: How To Give Up Control And Trust God More Even When You Don’t Want To!

Giving It To God: How To Give Up Control And Trust God

I won’t even lie to you. Giving “it” to God is one of the scariest aspects of being a Christian for me.

I hate being vulnerable, giving up control, surrendering…whatever you want to call it. It’s not my thing. I’d much prefer just being anxious all the time and trying to figure it all out myself. And I seriously wish I was joking, but I’m not.

I’m just keeping it real with you. And it’s highly possible that you feel the same way if you’re reading this!.

I want you to know that you’re not alone…not in the least bit. However, I have learned after many sleepless nights, many spiritual battles, and “wars” with God (“war” is in quotes because really…what kind of war would I really have with God?”) that surrendering to God is really the best option even if I go kicking and screaming as I do it.

Again, I wish I were more compliant, but it goes against my nature.

I’m so grateful, though, that I serve a God that is abundantly patient and kind with me and loves and blesses me despite how difficult I can be to deal with.

I hope that the tips I’m going to share with you today will help you learn to give it to God even if it terrifies you because, at the end of the day, it is the best thing that you can do!Continue reading
