But it’s REALLY hard, isn’t it? Our attention spans are ever-shrinking and so is our ability to carve out time for what is the most important spiritual discipline we can cling to across any circumstance.
An open channel to the God of the universe?
An invitation to enter His presence and share every part of our hearts to a God who *wants* to hear it all?
And the best part? We can open that dialogue ANYTIME we want! Shewww, those are some lap-running-inducing sentences right there.
But…we don’t.
The internal noise and clutter in the quiet moments makes it hard to formulate thoughts, let alone sentences.
This invitation into deeper intimacy with our Savior is too good, too life-altering to bypass it with busyness, lack of focus or overwhelm.
In this episode, we want to make sure you know the invitation to sit at His feet still stands. Always stands. Because Jesus always stands in intercession for us.
Romans 8:34 says Jesus “is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us”.
1 John 2:1 says Jesus is our “advocate with the Father”.
Hebrews 7:25 says Jesus “always lives to intercede” for us.
In today’s episode, Somer and Michelle have a little book club meetup to chat through a book that they both really enjoyed. Tyler Staton’s book, ‘Praying Like Monks, Living Like Fools‘ is one of the most powerful books on prayer they’ve ever read, and good news for you… on this episode they’re going to give you a full-ish synopsis with the hopes that you will go pick it up and let it change your prayer life, too.
A few things they covered:
- The Importance of Practice in Prayer
- The Power of Silence and Solitude
- Conversations with God
- Dealing with Internal Noise and Clutter
- Breaking Attachments to the World for True Love
