Oswald Chambers pointed out something in Matthew 6:6 to which I had paid no attention. I had focused on “praying in secret,” but the Biblical emphasis is on “praying to your Father who is in secret place.” God knows what is really in the most secret and deepest parts of my heart and soul. It is from there He wants me to pray. Getting in my room and closing the door only helps me shut out the noise around me to find the things in my life that really matter so that I can pray real prayers.
