How I Talk to God as a Tired Mom (No Fancy Prayers Needed)
If you’ve ever felt like you’re not “praying right,” this one’s for you. I used to feel like I didn’t know how to pray. I thought I needed the right words, a quiet morning routine, or a list of verses ready to go. I thought prayer had to sound polished and poetic–like something I could never quite do “right.” But what I’ve learned over time is that God isn’t looking for polished. He’s just looking for me.
