Praying More Often

This is my prayer for myself lately - to pray more! I pray before eating with Lilah and with Lance, and often times I pray for friends/family who I know are struggling, sick, sad, or need prayer. I am pretty good at stopping to pray for others and praying in the car, and talking to Lilah about prayer. However, I have been convicted that I often don't pray when I personally need Jesus the most. The times especially when I am frustrated with Lilah or other things in life. I am hoping that my conviction will allow me to stop and think and pray before reacting so quickly. I know it's a learned thing and takes practice, but I need to be better at this. And I want to be a good example for our children at doing this too before acting and reacting to situations. I am hoping putting it on the blog too will help me to be more aware and held accountable.
