About Christianity

everyday a christian should go to God in prayer, not only because we have things we need His help, but also because it is essential as a form of communication to improve and maintain our relationship. just like couples talk on the phone each night, we also have to pray each night.

the problem is, many of us at the end of the day gets too tired to pray. the prayer even though is just maybe 5-10 minutes, is sometimes taxing after a whole day of work (or play). and when we pray, we might sometimes be distracted and think of other things, or we might end up falling asleep for a little while. it certainly is not respectful to do that. we don't daydream or fall asleep when we are talking to friends, but we do that during prayers.

then one day i found a way to actually overcome this problem, that's why i am sharing all this with you. well, not actually i thought of it, i read it somewhere. instead of having to pray everything all in one shot at night and risk not concentrating, why not you split your prayers into a few parts? say 5 parts? then throughout the day you can say each little part of your prayer. for example, while you are waiting for a bus, you can say a little prayer thanking God for what He has done. or maybe when you are taking a little break from your work, you can say a little prayer request that you need help with. do this throughout the day, each time saying a little something. i'm pretty sure that you can maintain that 1 minute or less of concentration, right?

there is also another advantage of it, is that as we say our prayers throughout the day, we have God in our mind throughout the day, and that helps you know. keep thinking about Him and talking to Him now and then every single day improves your relationship with Him, and slowly you find yourself getting closer to Him. to those who have trouble concentrating, why not try this method? for every hour spend 1 minute in prayer isn't that hard, am i not right?
