Hi there, I hope your week is off to a great start!
I wonder if you've ever have trouble praying? Sometimes it is hard to find just the right words to pray, sometimes our minds wander while we pray, other times when we pray we get caught up worrying about the situation rather than lifting it up in prayer.
Praying in Color was developed by a woman who was having trouble concentrating while she was praying. She sat down one afternoon with a piece of paper, a pen, and some colored pens. She started by writing a name of a friend who had cancer and then started coloring and doodling with her pencils. Before long she discovered that she had prayed for a number of people in about 20 minutes and her mind did not wander and she did not find her self worrying like she normally did.
I encourage you to try it out as you pray for the folks on our prayer list. Get out some paper grab some crayons, colored pencils, or markers and pray.
