I think as we live and grow, so does the way we relate to Him. Kathi's book encouraged me to reach out to the Lord in a different way by actually praying over scripture.<br />And, you are so right - God knows our intentions before we ask, but He wants us to be in relationship with Him. I still am floored whenever I reflect upon the God of the Universe wanting to be my friend . . .

Thank you for sharing the Kathi's book with us and how you have learned much from her.<br /><br />When we last talked I felt the trust you have given to the Lord offering everything at this point in time. The faith that you have is very encouraging.<br /><br />I continue to pray with you dear friend. Gd knows what our intentions are before we say them but He still wants to hear our version of it.<br /><br />I love you so much ~ know that I am very near. God bless!

How wonderful to have had a mom and grandmother to teach and guide you in this practice!<br />I, too, am a "throughout the day" prayer, but, after reading Kathi's book, I've set aside quiet time just for that purpose.<br />Thanks for the hugs and blessings!

I grew up with a very religious mother and nana who incorporated prayer in our lives throughout the day. Nana taught me the importance of praying before I got up from bed, thanking the Lord for a new day of life. My mother enforced the importance of praying before our meals as well as saying our prayers before bedtime. I still pray throughout the day. I pray the most when I am stressed or anxious. I find that it is one of the most comforting ways to calm my restlessness. I admit that I rarely pray for myself. Just the other day, my mother mentioned that praying for oneself is as important as it is as praying for others. Kathi's book sounds like it would expand on this subject! Sending you hugs and blessings! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-86956923468720658632013-08-06T12:39:52.707-07:002013-08-06T12:39:52.707-07:00Thank you, my dear, for coming by and for your pra...Thank you, my dear, for coming by and for your prayers.

I'm so grateful for a God who is bigger than any worry and who waits always with listening ears and open arms. Running into those arms and cuddling, letting love hold me, keep me, strengthen me.
