Prayer
Prayer
How do you pray? When? Is there a special place where you pray in your home? Or a special place outside where you can be alone with God- a desert place? Is your prayer mainly giving thanks or seeking God's intervention? Are you finding it difficult to pray during this pandemic? Is there someone you would like to pray with- why not ask them to pray with you this week? Why not spend this week reflecting on your prayer life and renew your request to God to help you to pray.
