If you're easily distracted when praying, you (and I) are not alone.
In fact, if you struggle to pray in the first place, that's not unusual either. Tim Chester, in his book You Can Pray, tells us how we can be great pray-ers. And he admits that that's a really bold claim.
'The secret of great praying has nothing to do with human effort or skill,' he explains. 'Lots of people would like to think that it does because they want to make prayer an achievement.' But the secret of great praying is ... Knowing three things about God:
Tim looks at: why prayer is easy (how we pray), why prayer is difficult (why we pray) and the arguments and priorities of prayer (what we pray). Prayer is a child asking their Father for help. And that's not beyond any one of us.
