Jesus bathes his ministry in prayer. There are so many times in the Gospels where he goes to spend time alone in prayer, and it guides his life.
How about you? I don't bathe my life in prayer. I need to. I should. Jesus did, and he was probably the most in-demand person in the world at the time, so it's hard to argue that I'm busier than he was, and I certainly can't make the case that I don't need it as much as he did. I get spiritually lazy, and the clouds obscure the north star, so I lose my way.
May we take the time to seriously examine how we spend our days, that we may make the time (we'll never find it) to bathe ourselves in prayer, that our choices and our hearts may be formed and led through prayer.
