2 - Reflect
When we are disconnected from our own routines, it is sometimes hard to find a special moment to talk to God. Moreover, when we finally have a few minutes and are able to spend it in a deep meditation our mind is usually somewhere else, thinking about the thousands of things we have to do next, of the meetings we will have attend tomorrow or any of our other obligations. Feeling distracted is sometimes inevitable, but we have to train our thoughts so that they stay in the right place and don't intrude when we want to talk to God.
Either way, our Father will help us whenever we are scattered, He will show us how to prioritize our time by degree of importance. To consciously choose to pray calmly will give us the peace and clarity we need to face the day, no matter how busy it may be. In doing this, we will start to be more present, in time and spirit, our room for meditation must be sacred, in order to properly reach out to the Lord. Our time to speak with God requires willingness and discipline, to keep our thoughts in order so that we may share them with our Heavenly Father, and to trust that His advice will be wise and timely. It is always good for the scripture to be a part of our prayer.
