You ought to try a little prayer time every day, early in the morning before beginning your day’s work, asking Jesus to help you. When you first wake up, before you do anything, talk to Jesus. Get your orders from Him for the day, and you’ll be amazed at how He’ll solve or prevent a lot of your problems before the day even starts.

But if you go plunging into all your problems and troubles and your day’s work without stopping to talk to Jesus and get your directions from Him, you’ll be like a musician who decided to have his concert first, and then tune his instrument. Begin the day with the Word of God and prayer, and first of all get in harmony with Him.

Don’t ever think that it’s too hard to pray or that you don’t have time to pray. The busier your day, the more reason you have to pray and the longer you ought to pray. If you’ll spend a little more time praying, you will find that you’ll spend a lot less time working to get things done later. If your day is hemmed with prayer, it is less likely to unravel. It’s that simple!
