"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.
With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."
Ephesians 6:18
"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
Proverbs 22:6
Always pray. Always. Always. And just how is that to be taught? How about in the most practical way: Through me. As long as I am willing to verbalize how often I am praying, then they will begin to understand the meaning of "pray always".
Easy? Not at all. I am so used to internalizing my prayer life - my relationship with the LORD. Now, I need to be mindful of sharing that daily, relational interaction with the LORD, with these two precious souls.
May God give me grace and favor, and may He give them the desire to pray. May God also continue to lead me in praying for them to love to pray - to love, loving the LORD and being loved by Him.
