Talking to God

Think about how often you personally talk to God. Is it once or twice a day? Once a week? Only when you are worried, or you need something? While we do not have two-way conversations with God, we do have an open line of communication and we do receive answers even if we do not realize it. But should you only talk to God when you are in need?

Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. (Jas. 5:13)

It says if you are afflicted, pray. If you are merry (happy), sing a psalm. Communicating with God is not always just praying. It is all forms of communication. It is making sure that no matter what is going on in our lives, we know that God is a part of it and that we include Him in our thoughts. Communication is vital to success and having a healthy relationship.

How many times have you been in a situation that could have been improved if there had been better communication? It truly is the best way to keep a relationship alive and thriving. That is what we need in our relationship with God. To continually communicate. There are several examples of Jesus talking to God regularly.

And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. (Luke 9:28)

And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone. (Mat. 14:23)
