20 July 2010 Simple prayer

Today I came across some verses form Matthew translated in the message which I really loved.

It is from Matthew's gospel where Jesus instructs us on prayer and says the following;

"Find a quiet,secluded place....just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God and you will begin to sense his grace." Matthew 6

 

Sometimes when I start to pray I am so filled with what is going on in my day and what I want to happen that I am not sure the focus ever shifts. These words are inspirational, as if Jesus is telling me to get off the treadmill, be still and recognise he is there. Soothing words in our busy days.
