A little talk with Jesus

How often do you have a little talk with Jesus? As we have been encouraged to think about our prayer life through the prayer questionnaires that we have been asked to complete this has led me to think about what prayer really is and has reminded me of a chorus we used to sing as children which goes like this –
A little talk with Jesus makes it right, all right
A little talk with Jesus makes it right, all right
In trials of every kind
Praise God I always find
A little talk with Jesus makes it right, all right

Quite simple really, our prayers are a little talk with Jesus. A time when we are able to just have a chat with Jesus our Saviour and friend. I am sure we are all alike in that we try to make prayer something very complicated and difficult and indeed it is difficult to pray out loud in a church service, but on our own in our own home when we sit quietly with our Lord it is just having a little talk with Jesus in the same way that we may have a talk with our mum or dad, partner or friend. The more we do it the more natural it becomes. There is a more modern song that goes like this:-

Grandma used to pray out loud
By her bed every night
To me, it sounded like mumbling
Like she was out of her mind
She said, ‘Boy, this kind of praying
Is what saved my life
You outta try it some time’
And now I know she was right.

She was talking to Jesus
She was talking to Jesus
She’d been talking to Jesus
For all of her life
…………………
‘Cause now I’m talking to Jesus
Yeah I love talking to Jesus
And I’ll be talking to Jesus
For the rest of my life.
