Really Pray

our Rebecca and a praying mantis

"Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you." (Jeremiah 29:12)

We had a grand time last week with the Indiana kids and grands—camping, swimming, biking, hiking, and playing game after game after game of spikeball, pickleball, basketball, and Nertz. 

One of the many, many things I appreciate about our Rebecca and Stephen is that when we gathered at mealtime, they didn't  recite a memorized blessing; they prayed. I mean they really prayed, thanking the Father for numerous things including the food.

Beloved, before the first bite enters your mouth, I encourage you to pray—to really pray—thanking Father God for His gracious blessings and generous provision.
