    Tell Me about Your Prayer Life

    Tell me about your prayer life?

    Where do you pray?

    When do you pray?

    How important to your spiritual journey is your prayer life?

    Do you have a prayer language?

    What is most uplifting about your prayer life?

    1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 - 16 Be joyful always; 17 pray continually; 18 give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

    James 5:13-18 - 13 Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14 Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. 16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. 17 Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.

    I usually pray before bed. It is not always aloud, but a dialogue in my heart as I say the words to God in me head and my heart. My thoughts, if you will. Is prayer something that should always be said aloud? I yearn to know more about prayer as I never feel I "do it quite right". This is an area that is so vital to my Christian walk and yet also an area I am so unsure of how to do properly. thoughts?
