Prayer And Feelings

Prayer And Feelings

We’re continuing in our summer school of prayer fundamentals today with a word about feelings. That’s right, feelings. Remember that prayer is always powerful no matter how we feel. Thankfully, our feelings do not determine its power. The reason I mention this is because folks sometimes get discouraged in their prayer life because they think it should feel more amazing. They may have heard a story about someone powerfully encountering God during a time of prayer, and so they assumed that was the norm. The truth is, though, that the vast majority of times of prayer feel very normal. So, keep at it despite what your feel on a particular summer day, and those powerful answers are sure to come. Now that’s something to pray about!
