![]() I'm not burdened but eager, which I know does not come from my flesh but God's Holy Spirit. I feel like I'm in a season of learning to pray again. But many of us need to learn how to pray as well as fail in prayer in light of the good news that Christ is our righteousness ( 1 Corinthians 1:30). To be clear, prayer pleases God ( 1 Timothy 1:3). If our failures at prayer leave us feeling condemned, we've probably began to think of prayer as one of those spiritual duties that keeps God happy with us. If that happens to us, we've lost our grip on justification by faith alone apart from any works of our own. We read " pray without ceasing" and it becomes "guilt without ceasing." ![]() In fact, I suspect that most Christians may even feel burdened by their lack of prayer and the seeming ineffectiveness of prayer. I suspect few Christians would report having mastered this great privilege and discipline. ![]()
