A Little Danger Won't Hurt: Are You Praying Too Safely?
It's easy to become comfortable in our prayers- the repeated words, the familiar phrases, and the safe requests. But, are we limiting ourselves by staying in our safe prayer bubble? As Christian women, prayer is our lifeline to God. It's our chance to not only ask for what we need, but to also connect with Him on a deeper level. If we're constantly praying within our comfort zone, are we really expanding our relationship with Christ? 

Let's be real- praying outside of our comfort zone can be scary. But, the beauty of prayer is that it's a conversation with God, and conversations require vulnerability. So, why not take that same vulnerability into our prayers? Step out of your comfort zone and ask for something that seems impossible. Shoot your shot and ask for that promotion at work, even if it seems risky. Ask for forgiveness for something you've been too ashamed to confess. 

Dare to pray over the things you've never dreamed of before. The Bible says that faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains (Matthew 17:20). So why not start by asking for those impossible things? You never know, God may just surprise you.

Another way to pray outside of our comfort zones is by listening for God's voice. We're all guilty of talking at God in our prayers, but what if we took a moment to listen? Listen for His guidance in tough situations, listen for His confirmation in decisions we're hesitant to make, and listen for His comfort on difficult days. When we quiet our minds and listen for His voice, we open ourselves up to an even deeper connection with God.

Praying for others' needs is also a great way to step out of our comfort zones. When we take the attention off of ourselves and focus on the needs of others, we open ourselves up to an even deeper level of empathy and compassion. Praying for those we deem "difficult" can also be a challenge, but it allows us to put into practice what it truly means to love our neighbors as ourselves.

But, let's not forget- praying outside of our comfort zones means accepting the possibility of rejection. There may be times when we don't get the answer we wanted. There may be times when we don't get an answer at all. Praying for God's will over our own means surrendering control and ultimately trusting that His plans are better than ours. It may not always be easy, but it's worth it.

So, next time you pray, ask for the impossible, listen for God's voice, and pray for others. Remember, a little danger won't hurt.

Meet Tabitha King

 
For years, I felt helpless inside my own body.

Hi, I am a wife and mother, a minister, a massage therapist, and a holistic health coach. 
I am passionate about working with the body and learning more about how our bodies work, but more importantly, how to be made whole in our bodies, minds, and spirits.

Through the years, I had become a workaholic and never felt any peace. I was overwhelmed and stressed with dis-ease and pain.  I had to stop working for a while because of the chronic pain while having a husband and three children at home who needed me. 

I struggled with my health for quite some time, and I went through worse times before they got better. 

How many times have you been to a doctor, and they acted as if they couldn't figure out what's going on with you, so you go seeking doctor after doctor, looking for someone to help you because you know you are dealing with pain and need help figuring out the problem? How many times have you tried to create new habits, start new diets, introduce new patterns in your life, and end up feeling like you failed at all those things? 

And then, it happened. I have found something amazing that is helping me to understand I AM a healthy being, and I CAN recommit to a healthy, wealthy life!

I was introduced to a different way of living that many people are talking a lot about lately. I realized for my chronic situations; I needed to start getting my health under control. I’d considered it before, but I kept cycling back into a downward spiral going through a valley filled with pain. 

Prolonged physical illness not only affects us physically, but it affects everyone physically, mentally, and spiritually. Many tend to suffer a lot at the hands of doctors who make them worse, not better. I have dealt with this and it has put a bitter taste in my mouth towards doctors. The different medications did not lead to helping me get better, but they caused more pain, and side effects from the medicines caused deeper stress to my body. Anger, hurt, and pain kept showing up in my life, and I didn't know how to deal with it. These things controlled my mind, but now I am being made free. I love God, but, for quite some time, while I knew the Word says, "There is now no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus," I was still suffering from condemnation, guilt, blame, and shame.  Now, I have learned to persevere with joy during my pain because in the end, by faith, God will get the victory through my life's journey, and I can walk in my victory daily!

I’m on a mission to help people break free and empower themselves with the knowledge and resources I’ve worked so hard to get for myself.
