Prayer

Have you ever struggled with prayer?
No, not struggling to pray. I mean struggle with it. With the concept.
What it’s purpose is, I mean.
I acknowledge God as sovereign. As such, I don’t understand why we ask Him to do things.
Yet I still pray.
I’ve come to see it like I see talking to my friend Yeshua. (Ironic, I know.)
Yeshua is across the country right now. I have no idea when I’ll next see him. Yet I talk to him. We call each other at least once every other week, if not more often than that. It’s because we’re best friends.
Likewise, I pray because I am in relationship with God. I need to talk to Him, and to see what He thinks about my crazy ideas.
He also teaches me more about Himself.
Sometimes to learn things, you have to just verbalize them. Once you do that, it clicks. Hence, the countless times you are asking someone a question, then say “Oh wait, never mind. I got it.”
I think prayer is like that as well.
