I sit in a chair in front of a window so if I get distracted it's through nature and I give thanks to God for the beauty that I see.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13040664686715896092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3692156614069531903.post-59027941050262445702020-05-27T15:21:30.393-07:002020-05-27T15:21:30.393-07:00Thanks, Kari!

I love your plan and as I was putting it into my notes it occurred to me that, knowing me, it could turn into a checklist. With my Type A personality I love to DO things FOR the Lord and totally forget about being WITH the Lord! So I interspersed types of prayer in between your different activities. It looks like this: <br />1. Keep notepad & journal nearby (Notepad - random to do's; Journal - gleanings from God)<br />2. Confession<br />3. Read a spiritual book to get my mind in a God frame of mind<br />4. Pray for illumination<br />5. Read the Word<br /> 1. Mark it up - key words, aha's, questions<br /> 2. Journal takeaways<br />6. Pray<br /> 1. Praise<br /> 2. From today's Scripture reading<br /> 3. Lead mind into prayer by reading a Devotional book<br /> 4. Thanksgiving<br /> 5. From Prayer Journal<br /> 1. Family listing of requests<br />Thanks again!!mama johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06819636137249108943noreply@blogger.com
