Pray Without Ceasing
But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. - 2 Corinthians 4:7 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you. - Romans 12:3 Every moment can be a prayer. Sounds daunting? Rethink your idea of prayer. When you have a chronic illness - in my case severe episodic depression - every action towards healing becomes a prayer... Lying down in bed when you can't get out of it and not beating yourself up for it. Getting out of it when you feel the first glimmer that you could. Washing your hair and putting on clothes to keep a promise to your son that you would go to your family group tonight. Leaning on your husband while you cry a little bit in the kitchen. Texting friends for SOS prayer when you slip off the edge of hope. Cuddling wit
