Visiting a cemetery is both reflective and hopeful 🌿. We remember loved ones, honor their memory, and pray for their souls 🙏. Each grave is a reminder that life is precious and every story matters.
Through faith, we see death not as the end but as a doorway to eternal life. Jesus has promised us heaven, and that hope fills our hearts with peace ✨.

Discernment is the process of discovering God’s call 🌿. This prayer asks for vision to see His plan, strength to follow it, and patience to trust His timing 🙏. Discernment takes effort, but God is always near.
It is not just for ourselves. Once we hear God’s call, we are asked to help others recognize His presence too. Discernment shared becomes a gift that builds up the whole community ✨.

Saint Teresa of Avila, a Spanish nun in the 1500s, gave her life to God 🌿. Once focused on social life, illness helped her choose a path of prayer and reform. She led the Carmelites to live simply and focus on God 🙏.
Her mystical experiences and writings, including The Interior Castle, remind us that prayer is the key to closeness with God. Declared a saint and Doctor of the Church, her wisdom inspires believers today ✨.

In our journey of life, the thoughts we nurture shape our path and who we become. Positive thoughts guide us toward the divine, while negative ones might lead us astray.
The Coffee Filter Prayer serves as a memorable metaphor. Just as a coffee filter lets through only what's essential, we can filter our thoughts. Let's retain what is pure, kind, and true, allowing the rest to drift away ☕💭.

Sometimes answering God's call means disrupting our comfort!
The early believers gathered to pray in the middle of the night because they recognized their brokenness and their need for God's intervention. Are we willing to do the same?

Start in the Spirit
Start in the Spirit — that’s where everything begins. Before the breakthrough shows up in the natural, it’s conceived in the spiritual. Prayer, faith, and obedience birth the blessings we see. Don’t chase the outcome—seek the Source. What’s born in the Spirit will manifest in your life. 🔥 #Faith #SpiritualGrowth #StartInTheSpirit #PrayerLife #Shorts from Bishop Shammah Womack-El

Sometimes the world feels off-balance, and we can't explain why. But God calls us to pause, reset, and ask the hard questions. This is a post for the soul-searchers, the prayer warriors, and the ones still walking—one step at a time—through deep waters.

What is the right way to pray for me?
I’m not sure there is one. Which may be why my #prayerlife feels inadequate. I may not like the status quo however I do like having at least some basic rules or guidelines for things. That way I know when I’m breaking them. I don’t really feel like I have any guidelines for #prayer
Being #Episcopalian I do like community prayer, the kind done during worship services. I also like the prayers included in the Daily Offices of Prayer for All Seasons & the St. Helena’s Breviary, which are the 2 prayer books I use mostly frequently (aside from the #BCP ) That said, I’m not convinced every prayer done in a group or in public needs to begin with “the Lord be with you” It feels to formal or something for extemporaneous prayer.
I’ve been told that prayer is like a conversation with God, in which case, I pray a lot, although I don’t always address God by name. Some might call it thinking but there is a difference #ContemplativeKnitting #Introduction
How were you taught to #pray ?
I don’t recall ever being taught HOW to pray. As a kid, I recall being taught #prayers (God is great, Now I lay me down to sleep, Hail Mary & the Lord’s Prayer, among others). By the time I became a teenager I was memorizing swathes of the #BCP including prayers. But being taught how to pray or even the parts of a prayer? Not so much.
I was taught to mediate (it was the 70’s & mom was into TM, so I have a mantra I basically repeated while walking around in a dim room since I wasn’t old enough to actually sit still). I found it similar to the contemplative prayer as taught by a Benedictine monk during a prayer workshop a few years ago. That’s as close as I’ve gotten, which probably explains why I feel my #prayerlife is lacking. My prayers come from memories or books because I lack the confidence to “just pray” outside of dire circumstances. It’s one of the attractions of doing #ContemplativeKnitting #Introduction
