TIME FOR PRAYER!

Aunt Charlotte texted me today and asked if I could come to Bible study after class if they waited on me, and OF COURSE, I did not object. (:

I don't get out of classes until 7 at night, so I've been having to miss out. :(
But thank the Lord! He works things about amazingly. (:
Now, we're going to start at 7 on Thursday nights so that we can all come!

Tonight, we read about prayer.
Christians that commit to doing whatever it takes to have an authentic relationship with Jesus Christ are effective.
Therefore, we have purposed to journal.
We each received prayer journals, and starting tonight, we will write about the events of YESTERDAY.
The point of this journaling is to reflect on how we spend our time, and how much time we devote to God.

Each journal entry is limited to one page, so that we don't spend too much time listing things that are irrelevant. We can talk about an appointment we had, people we interacted with, thoughts//feelings, what we read in the Bible, church service..anything we want!

Then, on the back of that page is our prayer list.

Finally, we find a QUIET, PRIVATE place to pray.
The first day starts with 15 minutes.
Then add 5 mins each day, until you build up to an hour.

This is our goal, and the PURPOSE OF THIS NOTE is to invite any an all who would like to truly dedicate more time in their lives to prayer.
We live in a fast paced world, but we must not ever be TOO BUSY TO FIND TIME FOR PRAYER.
