This week in our series titled CLOSER, we are going to look at drawing closer to God through prayer.
You see, prayer is about a person. It’s about having a conversation with God. Now, how much you Talk to someone shows how Close you are to them. Just think about it … how you talk to some random person that sits next to you in class is much different from how you talk to your BFF.
So, if you want to know how CLOSE you are to God, then look at your prayer life! Maybe you hardly pray because it’s awkward, difficult, or you don’t know how … that’s OK! We are all growing and learning.
Instead of talking about prayer, this week we are going to explore some prayer exercises together. We will actually put prayer into practice and then discuss any growth in our closeness to God.
