The word "discipline" sounds like a work doesn't it?
The first thing I think about is exercising and staying fit.
Not many love working out, but there is no way of achieving fitness without it.
None.
But most people don't do it because, well, it's not easy.
I think that's why people may push back on prayer as a discipline - prayer is personal and relational, so when you speak of disciplined prayer it all of a sudden becomes a task or chore. Or maybe even feel like "law."
I'm not even gonna fake the funk - I think creating prayer disciplines are important. Not for any of the reasons above, but because our culture has a way of filling my time with busyness - and I begin to believe that the things I do are more important than slowing down enough for him to speak to me about the things I do.
In this episode, I'm sharing my thoughts about why I think creating disciplines that support a consistent prayer life matter.
And I'm offering a stair-stepping approach to inserting regular prayer into your life, no matter how busy your life feels right now. It may be so much easier than you think (and maybe you're doing it without even knowing it!).
