When I was a child I would often, in the quiet of the night, talk with God. I never used to know if He was actually there so the spilling of all these thoughts would end with an embarrassed “if you’re really there”. Looking back now I realised that my words were actually prayers. I believed in faith that someone was listening and hearing what I was saying despite not knowing if anyone was.
When children pray it is powerful- Why? They don’t complicate the simple. As we grow we see more of the world and with this we can grow a worldly mindset that limits the truth of Christ.
Jesus said that if you have the faith the size of a mustard seed you could tell the mountains to throw themselves into the sea (Matthew 17:20). Your prayer to God doesn’t need to be full of big words and exhausted sentences. What it does need to be is honest. Be bold and pray prayers that your inner-child would pray. Dare to believe that God hangs on your every word- He is the God who answers prayers... Even if you only have the smallest seed of faith.
Matthew 17:20
He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move.Nothing will be impossible for you.”
