Do we pray in little bits and fragments, or do we carve out the best hours of our day for prayer, and then immerse ourselves in it and the presence of God? When we don’t give our entire selves, and undivided attention, to the Lord in prayer, then what does that say about the value we place on our relationship with Him? Jesus sets a high bar for us when it comes to dedicating ourselves to prayer. To him it is not an afterthought, nor something to be done in passing, no, it is something holy that is to be sweated over, bled over, and that will often take all night to accomplish. Shouldn’t we at least give our Father the best of what we have by dedicating quality time to our prayers?
