The Compass: Prayer



Do you remember the first time you tried to pray?  I do – I was so worried that I wouldn’t do it correctly.  I had been around some older believers and had heard them pray and knew that there was no way that I could use the proper religious terminology and flowery speech that seemed to connect them to a deeper level with God.  And then the fear that I wouldn’t be able to find enough things to pray for so that I could fill 10-15 minute prayers that I heard other believers pray! 

Today’s resource, Prayer, is from a series called The Compass and it is about helping new or young believers learn what prayer is and how simple it is to spend time with their Lord in prayer.  It seems like a simple concept to help others with, and it is, but I think you will find this resource useful in knowing how to focus on the essentials of what is prayer.
