Heard.

What I wanted to blog about tonight,

is something I have been struggling with,

something that I can't quite make sense of,

something that I've never been good at,

something I've probably been doing wrong my whole life.

Prayer.

The thing is, I asked God to teach me how to pray.

And the next thing I know

I notice around 20 hurting people

with requests and pleas for healing

and miracles,

and comfort,

and help.

And I tell them I will pray.

so I sit down

or kneel down

or pick up a pen

and close my eyes

but I don't know what to say.

I want to pray boldly,

I want to pray unceasingly,

but I'm afraid I'm bad at it.

The amazing thing is, though,

I know He hears me anyways.
