Some people just have a natural knack for prayer. I do not. I have to pray aloud or I get distracted. Sometimes, I get distracted anyway. I'm always very conscientious of my prayer so then I get frazzled trying not to ask for too much or not to forget anything or not to sound irreverent. It's daunting to speak to God.
Here's a prayer from the operationworld.org prayercast. Tonight's country is Costa Rica. This man who is praying has a way with prayer.

Here's a prayer from prayercast, but it's from a couple of days ago for Botswana. It has stuck in my head because it's so heartfelt.

Each of the prayers sound so different, but both are touching. I enjoy hearing others pray.
I totally believe in the power of prayer. Since I've started praying, I've had three definitive examples of God answering prayers that I have specifically prayed for (one being for my own benefit, but the other two being for others' health issues). I hope that one day my prayers can sound as graceful and effortless as those two examples.
Praise God for his healing power and his comforting answers.
Goodnight <3
