How do you define prayer? Based on your prayer habits how would you explain it? Is prayer a dialogue between you and God or is it a one-way lifeline you resort to when all else fails? If I’m being honest my prayer life has been more of the latter. I’ve rushed through prayer because lifeContinue reading “Praying Proclamations”
