:: Pray Without Ceasing (Creative Prayer) ::

A servant girl said that she prayed all the time. The preacher asked her how she did this. This may be the most creative praying that you’ll ever hear…
The little girl answered, “When I open my eyes in the morning, I ask God to open the eyes of my understanding. When I am dressing I ask God to clothe me with His righteousness. When I wash my face, I ask God to wash all my sins away. When I begin my work, I pray for strength equal to my tasks. When I kindle the fire, I pray for God to revive the fires of my soul. When I sweep the house, I pray for God to cleanse my heart of impurities. When I prepare a meal, I ask God to feed me with the manna from heaven. When I am busy with little children, I pray for God to give me the spirit of a little child.”
What a lesson you and I can learn from a little servant girl who indeed had learned to “pray without ceasing.”
I’m going to implement this in my life…and I hope you will, too.
