Many of us have a “prayer closet.” And I have even said that my car is my prayer closet…I do a lot of praying in there. But, really, our bodies should be our prayer closets!

We should be “praying continuously.” No matter what we are doing or where we are – we have an “open line” to our Father…and He has an “open line” to us!

I am learning how to enter into the “secret place” of being alone with Him – no matter where I am or what is going on around me….

**I first posted the above message on Facebook in 2012. As I read it again, the line “and He has an open line to us!” jumped out at me.

I would tweak that statement now to read – and He SHOULD have an open line to us.

Brothers & Sisters, I hope as we enter into prayer, we remember that prayer is a two way conversation. We bring our needs, hopes, and desires to the Lord…and then we pause expectantly waiting to hear from Him.

He DOES want to speak with us. Are we positioning ourselves by giving Him the time and attention to actively hear from Him?

We need to lean in and draw near to the Lord! He’s waiting and ready to respond!
