• The reasons I don’t pray more:

• It is easier to just complain about the situation

• It is easier to talk to someone else about it

• It is easier to just deal with the situation on my own

• It is easier to deny the situation

• It is easier to try to rely on myself rather than God

• It is easier to stay in bed than get up early and pray

During this week of prayer and fasting God put on my heart that I need to wear out the carpet at the office in prayer.  When I pray I am one of those guys who paces back and forth, back and forth, back and forth.  I got a picture of that path of carpet being worn out by the end of this year because I committed myself in prayer for this community.

How do you feel about prayer?  Is it something that gets you all excited to go do or is it a chore for you at times as well?

I know that I will probably catch some slack for this post but while I might be a pastor, I am not perfect and don’t have it all figured out.  I am still working on my life and my relationship with God and a continually growing.
