15 contrasts in our prayer life

15 contrasts in our prayer life
a tool for meditation
by Joel Howard

When I pray...
Do I bow or climb
Confide or control
Gaze or grab
Pursue getting close or just getting?

Am I home or am I hustling
"I'll stay right here" or
"I'll take it from here"? 
Interceding or others-fearing?

Lamenting freely or
holding back
Listening or self-protecting
Meditating or manipulating
Prayerful or prideful

Resting or running
Settled or striving
Sharing or shutting down
Watching or wanting?
