A Foundation

I procrastinate in prayer. I know that if I do not set aside a time and a place, prayer will not just work its way into my life. And yet I always put it off. Always hopping that tomorrow will be better without actually determining why or how it will be better. Singh wrote that the habits we form now are the foundation for our eternal life. And this is really a cool way to look at my prayer life, because I am setting a foundation for my relationship with God that will span into eternity. Maybe one day I'll be walking with God and heaven and I can say "Hey, remember when I use to take walks and talk with you on earth?" That's a goal worth striving for. Some ways that I can implement prayer into my life is to set a time and not waiver on it. If I cannot make an appointment with God and keep it, I do not really value the relationship. I will have to literally set an alarm and not make plans during this time. It seems somewhat harsh, but I need to check my priorities and see who is the most important person in my life. And I want that person to be God, not myself or others.
