Where Love comes to Life
6 “Here’s what I want you to do: Find a quiet, secluded place so you won’t be tempted to role-play before God. 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.
7-8 “The world is full of so-called prayer warriors who are prayer-ignorant. They’re full of formulas and programs and advice, peddling techniques for getting what you want from God. Don’t fall for that nonsense. This is your Father you are dealing with, and he knows better than you what you need. With a God like this loving you, you can pray very simply.

The prayer relationship is:
We can pray whenever, wherever, about whatever – anytime, anywhere about anything.
But if it’s meant to be a two-way conversation, are we also listening, or do we just talk?
Do you have any friends that just talk and never listen? What’s that like for you? What do you think it’s like for our heavenly Father if we do all the talking?
