After I left Watchtower in May of 2021 (coming up on one year) i stopped praying. But then I started to pray again after i returned to Jehovah around November of 2021 but i noticed that my old habits were coming back and that is if i don’t pray out loud with audible words, my thoughts often get jumbled together and i get distracted and nonsense comes out- like real nonsense. So praying out loud is the best way for me to get everything out that i want to say to Jehovah. Sometimes i forget stuff and i’ll say “P.S.” and then say some more things and then end it again in Jesus’s name. This P.S. thing can sometimes go on for several P.S.’s. Lol
Also, sometimes i forget to pray, so i schedule daily reminders on my iphone throughout the day to remind myself to stop what i’m doing and pray. It’s easy to forget. I’m forgetful.
I keep going back to that scripture in 1 Thess 5:17 Pray incessantly. Why did Paul write that? Because he was inspired to know that we are going to need Jehovah more than ever and prayer is our lifeline to him.
I recall this one elder told the congregation one time that he often prayed while driving. We all chuckled- he was a sweet brother, he passed away some years ago from old age.
I just wanted to share that experience.
