Our
little granddaughter loves apples. The other day she proudly showed
what was left of her snack, and I can honestly say I've never seen an
apple so completely demolished; you could barely see the core! There was
about an inch of it left!
I
appreciated her efforts because we have been really trying to work on
not being wasteful, although, admittedly, I think she just thoroughly
enjoyed her apple!
I'm
not a big leftovers person, and this can be a problem if you are trying
not to be wasteful. I swear my husband could eat leftovers for three
days in a row and not really care.
I
get bored eating the same thing everyday. I think I've noticed a
pattern, because I get bored praying the same prayers as well. I love
praying with scripture and the daily readings, probably because they are
new every day and often speak to me.
Don't
be afraid to change up your prayer routine from time to time. Not only
does it give God an opportunity to speak to you in a new way, it also
frees you from any danger of attachment.
Wherever God leads us in prayer, we should follow. It is never a waste of time to offer him your attention.
