Over the next 40 days, we'll be working through the Draw the Circle book. Hope y'all grabbed a copy! :) Oh, we'll have scripture too! The prayers will contain bits of the daily readings. :)
Dear Father, You are God of gods! LORD of lords! Everything belongs to You!
Circumcise my heart. Cut away "my design" of how prayer should be answered. Cut around and remove "the me" getting in Your way. Change my prayers from ASAP to ALAT!
Thank You, Lord, for the little blessings. The little things You do that can be easily mistaken for luck, coincidences; almost unnoticeable. They are small, BUT they are sweet! And each one says "I love you!" Thank You!
Jesus, so many times we get tired and want to give up praying. That's not what You want! No matter how long it takes, we will not give up on ___.

Deuteronomy 10:14-17
14 To the Lord your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, the earth and everything in it. 15 Yet the Lord set his affection on your ancestors and loved them, and he chose you, their descendants, above all the nations—as it is today. 16 Circumcise your hearts, therefore, and do not be stiff-necked any longer. 17 For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes.
In the Draw the Circle 40 Day Prayer challenge book, Batterson pg 10 "Too often we pray ASAP prayers -- as soon as possible. We need to start praying ALAT prayers -- as long as it takes."
