Warming Prayers

Over and over, day after day, time and time again. Prayer. I have said thousands and yet I am still learning how to. We had a meeting with Elder Christofferson and something he quoted really stood out to me. "Prayer is like a fire in winter- you don't have to do anything to let it warm you." I kneel, I speak, I get up. Something in my prayers is missing. I don't let let them "warm" me. I struggle just clearing my mind and listening. But when I take the time to listen and have a conversation with my Heavenly Father, those are the best prayers. I hear what His will is and find peace. My life is so much better. 

Sorry if it seems as all I post about is prayer but it keeps coming back!
