The opening verse struck me. “Hear me, Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.” Psalm 86:1 Joshua Benton https://network.crcna.org/topic/spiritual-formation/prayer/being-poor-and-needy Thu, 11 May 2017 18:15:46 +0000 Tuckered Out by Prayer https://network.crcna.org/topic/spiritual-formation/prayer/tuckered-out-prayer Honestly, I never realized prayer can tucker a person out. Not in a bad way, in a good way. Think of it like when people hit the gym. They have a good workout, but they’re tired yet they come back feeling good as well, almost energized. This is what I mean by being tuckered out by prayer.

Praying prayers of indifference is where we model the prayer of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.
