Colossians 4:2 (New Living Translation)

An Encouragement for Prayer
2 Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart.

Just a short reminder this morning. Be devoted to praying during the journey. Keep your mind alert on the journey. Keep your heart thankful for the journey.

The journey may be getting a little rough about now. It may be more and more difficult to continue. Our minds may be wondering toward old habits. We may be far from feeling grateful for anything to do with this journey toward healthier living.

That is why Paul admonishes us to pray here. He knew the value and power of prayer. He had experienced it in his own life. He urges us to do the same.

Pray. Stay in touch with God. Stay tapped into the power. Stay focused on Him. Talk to Him. Listen to Him. Grow closer to Him.

Peace and Grace,
Don
