I struggle with prayer. Too many are not answered. I know folks who journal, and track their prayers and can detail the responses. I’m not one of those people. And to be honest, I’ve often questioned those “journaling” folks and their reasoning.
I also struggle with knowing when to pray. I know were told to be in constant prayer. In my experience anyway, I usually result to prayer in desperation. I can relate to Jonah here.
Prayer, to me, is primarily for thanksgiving, or a communication of my desires/ struggles or for seeking HIS guidance, and unfortunately usually in that order. For some reason, I’ve continued to pray. Why? I like the fact that the communication lines are always open, with maybe with practice and persistence, I’ll understand that it’s supposed to be a mystery how and when they’re answered.
