at first, these words sound pretty nasty. they're not words that you would typically use in everyday conversations, until you put them with another thing. get out of your comfort zone, leave your bubble, exit the known and enter the unknown.
in Bible class this week, we focused on prayer. as a way of communication with God, thanking him for his gifts, it doesn't have to be fancy, and yet so often we forget that. we got out of our comfort zones by walking around the classroom, silently reading the prayer requests of our classmates and friends, praying for each one. those prayers weren't fancy, but they weren't rushed. we each took the time to pray for our friends, and thanked God for putting them in our lives. it wasn't something I was used to, but it taught me that prayer comes in many different forms. in fact, no two prayers are the same, just like people. there is no exact replica of me on planet Earth, and there is no exact replica of you. God doesn't care how scripted your prayers are, or how well-worded they are. He just wants you to know that He's listening.
