Prayer Paralysis
About two weeks ago, I was sharing some ideas and dreams with my husband and explaining to him how I wanted to pursue them. Then, I said my famous words, "I need to pray and ask God what to do with it." He looked at me and said, "Okay baby, just don't get prayer paralysis". Those words stuck with me and ring very strong in my heart and mind as I realize more and more that I've prayed so much that I haven't done anything! I'm not discounting prayer, because it is needed, but we have to DO something afterwards. The Bible says it very clearly in James 2:26, "Just as the body is dead without breath, so also faith is dead without good works." (NLT)

This is so true! I think sometimes we hide behind prayer because of our fear to fail.
