Want to get better at prayer? Pray more.
There is no such thing as the perfect prayer. The prayer itself nor the one who prays it.
I don’t talk about prayer a lot because I’ve perfected the habit — I talk about prayer a lot because I’m weak and desperate for Jesus and know that prayer is my LIFELINE.
Many, many times my prayer has been just a stream of tears.
Often it’s just the Name of Jesus.
Sometimes I don’t have words to offer.
Sometimes I read a verse and it becomes my prayer.
Sometimes I talk on and on about a situation knowing that He already knows it all but He’s changing my heart as I pour it out to Him.
If you want to become better at praying, JUST PRAY. Kind of like “just do it.”
Don’t let a conversation with the One who loves you so very much be intimidating. These should be the easiest conversations we have all day.

Loved this encouragement……. just talk to Jesus, all the emotions, big things, little things, ups, downs, challenges, praises, just talk to Jesus.
