07-05 Reflection

-today's verse-
The LORD is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
Psalm 145:18



now i remember one of those afternoon talks in SOLV, where we were taught how to have a good prayer life. the speaker said that in praying, you have to be bold. naked before God. completely honest... even if it means telling Him these:

"Lord, i feel lazy today."
"Lord, i feel like i don't wanna pray today"
"Lord, i think i'm beginning to lose faith"
"Lord, i've done something wrong & it's still hard for me to correct it"

through honest prayers, you'll find yourself moving closer to God. God has subtle and magical ways to let you feel that things aren't incorrigible after all. try it!
