10 Lame Excuses for Not Praying


1. "I'm too busy!"
(Jesus had a packed ministry schedule but he made time to pray.)

2. "I don't know how to do it right."
(How about just try talking to God like you would a friend?)

3. "It doesn't work anyway."
(That's not how Jesus or the early church treated it.)

4. "Prayer just changes us, not situations."
(Who told you that, the providence fairy? It changes both!)

5. "I don't sound good when I pray."
(True prayer is a heart utterance, not a speech competition.)

6. "I'd rather read the Bible than pray."
(Without both it's just a one way conversation.) Keep reading.
