Always Pray...

Today I read 1 Timothy 2 :) the verse that caught my attention this time was verse 8! It is saying that we've gotta pray always. Prayer though is sometimes monotonous! Sometimes when I hear someone praying I feel like they use too many words and even make it sound awkward. I see prayer as a  conversation with God, i tell him about my day and ask for things. That is one mistake tend to fall into always, just asking for this...asking for that. Prayer has an order though, I took the time and read the Lord's prayer. It starts out by honoring God and recognizing how great  He is. It does not start our asking for things. Then it goes on to ask the Lord to have His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. It does not go on telling God to do "blabla" for selfish reasons, but to let God do His will. Then he Thanks God and asks for Forgiveness! Then asks God to protect him/ guard him from temptation. So, Jesus teaches us how to pray, and I feel like I should follow that way of praying and stop just demanding things from God because everything I have is a GIFT from God,  i do not deserve it.
