Doers

If you do not yet have a daily discipline of prayer, start today. Select a 10-15 minute period of time and block it out on your calendar for the next week. Practice praying. Use the Lord's Prayer as your guide.

If you already have a daily discipline of prayer, choose one of the following steps:

1. Add a second prayer moment to each day. Let Psalm 23, 100 or 103 shape that moment (2-10 minutes).

2. Begin an experiment of keeping God near to your conscious thoughts throughout the day. How often can you return your attention to God each day and what difference does that make to your mood, your responses and your decision making?
