This is the season of light. Trees are decorated, sometimes with multicolored IMG_1185lights. Some lights blink and others stay still.

I have noticed there is a pattern to some strands that twinkle, take a break and then start again.

It is fun to see houses decorated with lights that follow a song and dance across the house in different patterns.

What patterns have you noticed in your spiritual life? Do you find it easier to pray when things are only going well? Can you find a way to pray that brings you comfort when things are not going as well.

This week, consider the patterns of your prayer life.
