I took a praycation today, and it was very fulfilling. Jesus took praycations a lot. He used to go into secluded places to pray to the Father. At least one time, He prayed right through the whole night! I hope my prayer life will look like that soon. A couple of blogs ago I wrote about my frustration with my prayer life. I want to improve on that by the grace of God, so I took a praycation today.
I've been especially influenced lately by George Mueller - the man who, by prayer and simple, but systematic faith in God's promises, literally changed his country and later on countless individuals like myself who have read his stories. He also prayed for hours at a time, and sometimes for years before his prayers were answered. So I have at least 2 aforementioned role models to emulate. :)
By the way, I officially hold the patent on the term "praycation".
Thoughts, ideas, and experiences of a modern Christian living in a post-modern world.
