We tend to think getting an answer from God is the main reason we pray. The main reason we pray is to be praying.

How do you handle the issues you face each day as you confront life in the real world? Do you find yourself in God’s Word, prayerfully seeking God’s guidance and help? Or do you immediately turn to others to tell you what to do?

I don’t know about you, but sometimes when a crisis arises, I find myself asking others to pray before I’ve talked to God about the situation myself. I’ve come to realize that God wants me to read His Word and talk to Him first. Actually He wants me to talk to Him always.

We constantly carry on a personal conversation with ourselves. We evaluate every situation. We review conversations with others over and over in our minds. We carry on an internal discussion about life and our evaluation of it.

I believe God wants us to invite Him into that conversation. That’s what I believe Paul means when he tells the Thessalonians to “pray without ceasing” (1 Thess.5:17). God never gives us a command that we can’t fulfill. So instead of talking to yourself, why not start talking with God?
