If we are going to 'pray without ceasing' should we end each little prayer? I don't say goodbye after every thought when I'm speaking to someone in person or on the phone. Since I have an ongoing conversation with God all day long, so much to thank Him for and so much help to ask for, seems almost disrespectful to say amen. Always thinking "please don't let me fall, help me stand long enough to finish the dishes, thank You for allowing me to take care of my little ones, etc." When I say a specific prayer, over my prayer list, for a specific person or reason as when I'm praying for our country at 8pm each night, I will end my petition with "in Jesus mighty name. Amen."
Do you say 'amen' every time you pray?

This is all completely new/news to me. I'm even excited that I've figured out how to leave comments. It's so funny how much I am TRULY like you. Reading you saying the same things I've said, say. Let alone, Thoughts that we share. My regret is I didn't find this sooner. Not getting to spend more time with you, tell you I Love You, we'll showing it mostly. Better late then never, eh? I find it wonderful, upsetting, hilarious and heartbreaking with the more I read. For someone who rarely was short of words, i struggle greatly today. I'm proud to be your daughter. 👩👦💖😘
