Sometimes prayer can be a struggle. We can easily get stuck in our routines and daily tasks that we forget about the importance of taking time each day to stop and pray. One of the great ways to create the habit of praying more consistently each day can be creating a schedule for yourself, at first it may seem forced, but communication and time with God is never a bad thing even if it is predetermined scheduled into your calendar.
Today we shared 5 inspiring prayers from Crosswalk.com that can be used as a prayer guide to set up a consistent prayer schedule for yourself. Find the full list of prayers HERE!
We hope these prayers encourage you and help you grow your relationship with Christ by choosing daily to talk with Him consistently.
