Day 40: A Life of Prayer Beyond Lent

“Pray without ceasing.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:17

As Lent comes to a close, the journey of prayer does not end—it is just the beginning. Throughout these 40 days, you have sought to deepen your relationship with God, reflect on His love, and align your heart with His will. Now, the challenge is to carry this spirit of prayer into everyday life.

Paul’s call to “pray without ceasing” does not mean we must always be speaking words of prayer, but that we should live with a heart constantly aware of God’s presence. Prayer is not just for the Lenten season or moments of need—it is the foundation of a life lived with God.

As you move forward, commit to keeping prayer at the center of your daily life. Set aside time to be with God, pray in the little moments of your day, and invite Him into every aspect of your life. Let your heart remain open to His voice, and trust that He is always near.

Reflection: How has your prayer life grown during Lent? What habits will you carry forward beyond this season? Ask God to help you remain faithful in prayer, not just today, but for a lifetime.
