The Lord’s prayer is a great example and outline for prayer. I have taught and used the ACTS model before. I think the key is staying focused during times of prayer. A lot of times we think that prayer has to be done with our eyes closed and quietly. Personally, I have a had time staying on task that way. I find it useful to pray with an outline or a list of prayer requests in front of me. When I find my mind-wandering, I refer back to the list to stay focused. Plus, I keep a pen/pencil handy because sometimes God will bring something to my mind that I need to write down. Sometimes I am reminded of other prayer needs or sometimes I am reminded of Bible verses that are relevant to the situation.

This blog is a place for those participating in the student ministry mission trip to Guatemala. We are using the book "My Life, His Mission" by Kim P. Davis. Each student will be working through the book of a 6 week period. Team leaders will be blogging their thoughts while giving the students the opportunity to comment. To support our trip, please contact Liberty Church Student Ministry Pastor Michael Kell at kell@yourliberty.org
