During morning devotion time, I flipped through a few pages of my favorite devotional, Magnificent Prayer, to look at underlined statements. My eyes stopped on a passage and I read, “To pray is to tell Jesus what we lack.”
My thoughts immediately went to an experience the day before during a verbal exchange. So upon reading the “what I lack” statement, I said, “I sometimes lack ability to make myself clear in conversation, or in relaying what I mean in a concise way.”
Then I added, “Jesus, I even feel inadequate when talking to You.”
