Effectiveness
Ziploc bags vs. the off brand
Mountain Dew vs. HyVee Hee Haw
Dairy Queen Blizzard vs. McDonalds McFlurry
Apple vs. Microsoft
One is always more effective than the other. Usually you'll pay more for the one that is more effective. Lately I've been hit with how effective my prayer life is. I pray, I desire answers, I believe God can do it, but yet it seems that sometimes God doesn't hear me or answer me. In order to have an effective prayer life it's going to cost me. Cost me what? Pride, selfish desires, hidden sin. I need to confess. I have realized recently that I don't confess my sins as often as I probably should. Confession needs to be a part of my prayer life. It's not that I've done some heinous sin or anything but any sin comes between me and God. It just hurts to confess sin. So let the pain begin. Today, I will begin to dive inward, take time to search below the surface level and find those sins that I don't want to confess, haven't seen before or the sins right under my nose. I will confess them so that there is no chasm between me and God. I want my prayers to be effective.
An effective prayer is just a prayer away...
two comments:
Microsoft would own apple Blizzard all the way Ziplock does NOT break and hee haw tastes the same though seriously this really does touch everyone who gets to see it (and i contributed 
)and as you said its hard to say your will be done in your prayers cause you know that it might not always be what you want (ill also be praying for you during your trip)

Are you kidding me? Apple can handle both Windows and OSX. Can a PC do that? Nooooo. I guess, like everything else, some truths will remain hidden until “that day.” JK. (Not about Apple being better, though.)
Seriously, I feel like sometimes I never get beyond the confession part because there is just soooooo much to confess! ARgh!
