    K.I.S.S = Keep It Spirtually Simple! We don’t need to go on and on when praying. God already knows what’s in your heart and soul. Sometimes when I go over and over what’s bothering me, I feel worst than when I started praying and by the time I begin to pray, God’s already working at giving me what I need.

    So true! We should spend more of our prayer time listening, shouldn’t we! I sometimes find myself just being quiet when I’m in prayer.

    Thanks for writing, Julie.

    Maybe some people talk to God so much because they are afraid to hear him. They are afraid he will really answer, and then they will have to acknowledge, accept and truly believe God. Some people might like “sitting on the fence” because it is a comfortable place to be.
