Remember this: Prayer is a "conversation" with God. It doesn't mean you should go to Him with your want list, it doesn't mean you talk, talk, talk at God, and it doesn't mean you get to tell Him everything you want Him to fix about everybody else. Prayer means you go to God with a humbled heart, you are there to spend time with Him...in His presence. Many times you are there looking for answers for your life, seeking direction. Oftentimes you are just there to thank Him for how good He has been to you or to you may want to tell Him how much you love Him. And if you are truly seeking for answers, and you are really looking for direction, at some point He will direct your path or He will answer the questions you have for you life. Here's a suggestion...go to God and ask Him..."Father, what would YOU have me to know today?" and then listen for the answer. Or, "Father, would you please search my heart and show me if there is something I need to change?" And I promise, if you are sincere, the Holy Spirit will begin to show you things in your own heart that He wants to work in. But we have to want to commune with God, and we need to do it every day.
"And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:13)
