Prayer, that constant struggle I feel every time I try to communicate with God. I don’t feel adequate. I don’t use flowery words. I can’t come up with what to say. I feel absurd. I feel powerless. I feel doubt. I feel a whole slew of emotions while I am trying to pray. I have gotten better over the years. It is still sometimes I struggle. Fact, I know several people, including in my own family that struggle with prayer. I also know some prayerful and elegant prayer warriors too.
In Adam Dressler’s book This is How We Pray he takes you on a journey of discovery of connecting to God through prayer. He even shares his authentic and real struggles with prayer himself. I love the fact that he quotes and dives deep into having a prayerful life. I had several moments of clarity as I read. This is one book I will be rereading.
If you struggle with prayer then this book is a good one to read. Creating an intimate relationship with Jesus while praying is vital for my life, and I know for yours too.
