Do you know to pray boldly—but hesitate when the prayer is about something you personally want?

Mama, prayer can feel confusing when you’re trying to share your desires without telling God what to do. You want to respect His timing and His purpose. But somewhere along the way, you start editing your prayers—and holding back begins to affect your closeness with Him.

In this episode, I share what I noticed when I started skipping my Bible study and prayer time, and how bringing God the request I’d been editing helped me draw close again.

We’ll explore:
• Why praying boldly can feel easier when it’s for someone else.
• How fear and guilt can lead us to hold back in prayer.
• Bringing God our desires, uncertainty, and questions about our motives.
• How desire and surrender can exist in the same prayer.

Two questions to take into your time with God:
What am I holding back from God?
What has holding that back cost me in my closeness to Him?

Scripture: Psalm 4:3

Bring Him the sentence you usually edit out—and the fear behind it.
