Lent 2025 School of Prayer 38

Day 38: Becoming a person of Prayer

“Then Jesus told his disciples a story to show them that they should always pray and never give up,” — Luke 18:1

Prayer is not just something we do—it is part of who we are called to be. Jesus often went alone to pray, which shows us that a life full of prayer is a life close to God. We should always pray and not give up because it keeps us close to the Father, makes our faith stronger, and links us with His will.

To become a person of prayer, you have to make it a habit to talk to God all the time. Not only in times of trouble, but also in everyday situations, like when you’re thankful, worshiping, giving up, or loving someone. People who pray more often feel God’s presence in their daily lives.

Think about how you pray today. When you need help, do you always pray, or is it something you only do when you need it? Pray to God to help you pray deeply, faithfully, and all the time.

Some thoughts: What can you do to make prayer a more normal part of your daily life? What little thing can you do today to start praying more? Make a promise to talk to God more deeply.
