“If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. ” James 1:5 Many people believe that to live a truly spiritual life, you need to live in seclusion; where the realities of life are either ignored or forgotten.

Pray without ceasing 1 Thessalonians 5:17 The future is unknown but you can prepare for it by developing a healthy prayer life. This will provide you with strength in moments of weakness, and comfort in times of sorrow. Many people will tell you that praying is a natural instinct. This may be true, but an effective prayer life is the result of disciplined and sensitive attitude before God.
