Today, we consider the questions asked in installment 1 of this episode:

What does it look like to love the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength?

How can we love someone so much if we rarely or never interact, talk to, or converse with them?

The first is open-ended, and the second is rhetorical, but they are critical questions regarding our prayer lives. 

When we see the answer to the first, we are indeed brought into a new and loving relationship with God; the natural answer to the second is clear. 

We cannot truly love God with all of our beings if we do not know Him through sincere back-and-forth conversations.

Matthew 6:5-13 presupposes both the truth of our new friendship with God and the necessity of our sincere seeking Him in listening (His word) and talking (our prayers)

So What?

New? 

Start to talk to God with the twin ideas; you are in a real conversation with Him, and He is listening. Let your words flow from your heart, mind, and soul. 

Fits and starts? 

Start again, building on your conversation with a renewed vision of your relationship with Him. Have that truth move you to a consistent dialogue with the Almighty!

Love your prayer life?

Excel still more. Draw closer to Him in all sincerity, cherishing that you are experiencing more and more of Him in truth, and let that face-to-face time do God's work and shine as Moses did with the glow of His presence. 

Pray, Pray, Pray, my beloved brothers and sisters.
