Practice Prayer

practice...practice...practice....

As the old saying goes, "How do you get to Carnegie Hall?...practice, practice, practice..."
Most are not born with talent to play a musical instrument, but all can sit at the piano and practice until they at least can carry a tune on it. Such is the way with prayer. Most are not born with the gift of prayer. What you need to do is practice prayer, and just like a musical instrument, in the beginning it sounds awful to you. It is a pain to sit at that piano and focus...you cannot read the music, you cannot get both hands to work at the same time with the notes and the scales.. you are very clumsy with it......and you do not want to take the time to learn. You have better things to do than to sit at the piano and frustrate yourself. It is right at this moment the musician is born... the one who says, "but I am going to stick to it until it comes to me". No matter what, I am going to stick to it...because I really want to play the piano and one day make beautiful music. Such is prayer as well; keep it up and one day you will make such beautiful music that God himself will sing along with you.

You might even get good enough that you can hold a public concert, so all can hear your music to God...Maybe then we could have a jam session or sing along and really get this planet rocking for God...And the concert tickets are free, a gift from the management..
