Week 2: Wednesday
“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.”
Staying focused when you’re praying can be tough! Even the best, most experienced pray-ers drift off from time to time.
If you struggle to stay focused when you pray, try this: Choose a word that reminds you of God. It could be joy, faithfulness, or strength. Use that word as the anchor of your prayer. Anytime your mind starts to drift toward your homework or your empty stomach, say that word out loud to help your mind get back on track.
