Prayerlessness

 From Jackie Hill Perry

Prayerlessness is almost always a humility 

issue. We'd like to believe that we don't

pray because of busyness or that we just

lack discipline and need to "do better".

At the end of the day though, we're just a

proud bunch. Pride deludes us into 

thinking we're self-sufficient. That our

jobs supply our needs. Our relationships

provide comfort. Our intellect and 

ambition made us successful. But in

fact, everything you are and everything

you have is because God rains on the

just and unjust. So then, to become

more prayerful, we have to be honest.

Literally embracing the reality that we

are perpetually needy even when it

doesn't feel like it.
