Can You Pray Too Much?

Maybe you’ve wondered if it is possible to pray too much… especially if you are praying before dinner and the food starts to get cold! Once Joni was driving with a friend and they got a little lost. Her friend immediately started praying, asking God to help them get where they were going. At first, Joni thought it was a little silly to pray about that. All they needed to do was turn around! Or they could even stop and ask for directions! But then Joni remembered Ephesians 6:18, which says, “At all times, pray by the power of the Spirit. Pray all kinds of prayers. Be watchful, so that you can pray. Always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.” That sounds like a lot of prayer, doesn’t it? So you can pray about everything, big or little, all the time! But what about your cold dinner? You might want to read How NOT to Pray again. But praying too much? Never!
