Prayer Testimony

So too the [Holy] Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness; for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance.
Romans 8:26 AMPC

What excuses have you used to avoid prayer? I know I have many. . . too tired. . . in a minute. . . not “feeling” it. . . excuse after excuse after excuse.Well we are without excuse if the Holy Spirit resides in us.

This week I resolved to set aside time, more than my normal morning prayer time, to pray. I had all my excuses lined up as to why I couldn’t but surrendered to the presence of God through the Holy Spirit.  Day 1. . . struggle. BUT, by the time I said amen, I was refreshed. I had a better attitude and I was filled with joy.

God blesses our efforts. The next morning I received two answers to prayer. One a done deal and one a positive step in a mother/son relationship. What a blessing to be a part of answered prayer. 

So what is your excuse?
