Ask yourself: what’s good about this moment right now? Is the sun out? Can you hear birds? Are you drinking coffee? Can you smell freshly cut grass? Is your bed soft and warm? These little things are oh so precious and yet seem so arbitrary.

Dear Christians who are visual people:
If you are like me, praying is not something you’re very good at; you are never able to feel that connection between you and God, and you don’t feel like you are actually talking to the Creator of the universe—the King of kings, the Lord of lords. You feel like you are just saying words, and your mind becomes something I like to call a “foggy window.” All the while, you feel terrible because you KNOW that He hears you, but your side of the conversation seems weak.
I’ve discovered a way to fight the “foggy window” of our minds: look out of an actual window. Especially on a night when the stars are out, or during a lightning storm, look at the sky when you talk to Him. See the things that He spoke into existence, and the realization of Who it is that you are actually talking to comes crashing down on you. You actually feel like you are talking to Him. Don’t misunderstand, feelings are fading, and you shouldn’t hunt after “feeling God.” You don’t for most of your life. But when you are praying, don’t allow your words to become a chant. Don’t let them become routine. Allow creation to remind you what it is you are actually doing when you pray, and Who you are speaking to. It will protect you from heartless prayers, and as visual people, we are the ones most guilty of this.
