I want to express my thanks that you've made me think about my relationship with God. Your challenge was what I needed.

Not only am I a christian I am also a nurse, how could I not commune with God daily. If someone should ever say God is not real, should try being a nurse. I feel the presence of God daily in my work. I work with cancer patients who know life is valuable. Thank you for your commentary. Some of the questions on here are just so negative.

Very well. i think you're reming the Christian to do their duty. Thank you.
I think i've done it. because my church people tought me to do it as a life style.
One question for me that you must answer in your heart: Have you done The worth Of Jesus before He went to heaven? (matthew 28: 19-20) If you don't just do it. Because it's the most important thing. And When you are did it. All the heaven will shout out to you to the majest of His name.
God Bless you too

Yes, I have been reading Psalm 32 and have rejoiced. Isn't the Word of God wonderful!!!
Oh, what joy for those whose rebellion is forgiven,
whose sin is out of sight!
Yes, what joy for those whose record the Lord has cleared of sin,
whose lives are lived in complete honesty!
When I refused to confess my sin,
I was weak and miserable,
and I groaned all day long.
Day and night your hand of discipline was on me.
My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat.
Finally I confessed all my sins to You
and stopped trying to hide them.
I said to myself "I will confess my rebellion to the Lord."
And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone.
Therefore, let all the godly confess their rebellion to you while there is still time,
that they may not drown in the floodwaters of judgement.
For You are my hiding place;
you protect me from trouble.
You surround me with songs of victory.
The Lord says I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.
I will advise you and watch over you.
Do not be like a senseless horse or mule
that needs a bit and bridle to keep it under control.
Many sorrows come to the wicked,
but unfailing love surrounds those who trust the Lord.
So rejoice in the Lord and be glad, all you who obey Him!
Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure!
I am currently meditating on this Psalm each day and getting lots from it, which lead me into prayer.
Sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of payer
That calls me from a world of care
That bids me at my Father's throne
and all my needs and wishes known.
In season of distress and grief
My soul will always find relief
And so disdain the tempter's snare
And thus remain in the hour of prayer.

Amen God is good! The Lord is worthy of our time, praise and dedication. He has given us His all and we should live for Him. Yes I did meet with Him today in prayer and the reading of His word.

Drawing Close to God in Prayer
Why is it important to pray regularly? (1)
To whom should we pray, and how? (2, 3)
What are proper subjects for prayer? (4)
When should you pray? (5, 6)
Does God listen to all prayers? (7)
1. Prayer is humbly speaking to God. You should pray to God regularly. Thus you can feel close to him as to a dear friend. Jehovah is so great and powerful, yet he listens to our prayers! Do you pray to God regularly?—Psalm 65:2; 1Â Thessalonians 5:17.
2. Prayer is part of our worship. Thus, we should pray only to God, Jehovah. When Jesus was on earth, he always prayed to his Father, not to anyone else. We should do the same. (Matthew 4:10; 6:9) However, all our prayers should be said in the name of Jesus. This shows that we respect Jesus’ position and that we have faith in his ransom sacrifice.—John 14:6; 1 John 2:1, 2.
3. When we pray we should speak to God from our heart. We should not say our prayers from memory or read them from a prayer book. (Matthew 6:7, 8) We can pray in any respectful position, at any time, and at any place. God can hear even silent prayers said in our heart. (1 Samuel 1:12, 13) It is good to find a quiet place away from other people to say our personal prayers.—Mark 1:35.
4. What subjects can you pray about? Anything that might affect your friendship with him. (Philippians 4:6, 7) The model prayer shows that we should pray about Jehovah’s name and purpose. We can also ask for our material needs to be provided, for our sins to be forgiven, and for help to resist temptation. (Matthew 6:9-13) Our prayers should not be selfish. We should only pray for things that harmonize with God’s will.—1 John 5:14.
5. You may pray whenever your heart moves you to thank or praise God. (1Â Chronicles 29:10-13) You should pray when you have problems and your faith is being tested. (Psalm 55:22; 120:1) It is appropriate to pray before you eat your meals. (Matthew 14:19) Jehovah invites us to pray “on every occasion.”—Ephesians 6:18.
6. We especially need to pray if we have committed a serious sin. At such times we should beg for Jehovah’s mercy and forgiveness. If we confess our sins to him and do our very best not to repeat them, God is “ready to forgive.”—Psalm 86:5; Proverbs 28:13.
7. Jehovah listens only to the prayers of righteous people. For your prayers to be heard by God, you must be trying your best to live by his laws. (Proverbs 15:29; 28:9) You must be humble when you pray. (Luke 18:9-14) You need to work at what you pray for. You will thus prove that you have faith and that you really mean what you say. Only then will Jehovah answer your prayers.—Hebrews 11:6.

Well, actually, I went into my secret place to conduct my daily business with God. For your Father, which sees in secret, shall reward you openly.
I don't jump on the rooftops or pray loudly in public places to be seen of men, nor do I tell everyone on an answers board how holy I am. For they shall have their reward.
So... did you watch the NCAA championship game yesterday?
