Have you ever buttoned up your dress or jacket and missed the top button? You look down and everything is askew and you realize you have to start all over again. The same thing can happen in our spiritual lives. If you don’t have prayer as a top priority in your day, nothing else will line up right. Jesus spent time in prayer every day communing with His Heavenly Father, and if He needed to pray daily, how can we hope to navigate through our day on our own? It is only through prayer that we will find the power and guidance to fulfill God’s will in our lives. So begin each day spending some time in prayer, listening to the One who can help you align all the buttons of your life.
