Yesterday I prayed about my frustration, asking God to change my attitude. A split second later, I was mentally onto the next problem. I realized I was like those people who dominate conversations—I wasn't letting God get a word in. Our minds operate like radios stuck between stations, full of static. True prayer means learning to listen after we speak. Jesus modeled this by withdrawing to quiet places. This week, try sitting in silence for 30 seconds after praying.

When Jesus cleared the temple, He wasn't just angry about corrupt business - He was reclaiming God's house as a place of prayer for all nations. This transforms how we understand worship and daily faith. Prayer isn't the opening act; it's the main event. Your life can become a portable sanctuary where heaven meets earth through conversation with your Father.
