I don't know if I came up with the solution on my own or if someone suggested it to me, but I started imagining myself kneeling at the feet of God as He sat in His chair, maybe something like what Lehi describes, but no concourses of angels. Then I would just talk to my Father and prayer became a personal experience rather than a struggle.Jenni Taysomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06962389435243328846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6478273273186623663.post-48532977702266590402012-03-01T05:29:14.833-08:002012-03-01T05:29:14.833-08:00Love this blog post.

It's stronger, at least. So this is the perfect time to try this out!Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01667724269493668949noreply@blogger.com
