A Prayer to Be Honest When Talking to God | Your Daily Prayer

Laura Bailey once wondered whether her candid conversations with God were irreverent until she encountered the prophet Habakkuk's remarkably transparent prayers. Beginning with Habakkuk 1:2 and the prophet's cry of “How long, Lord?”, this devotional explores what Scripture teaches about bringing our real emotions, questions, struggles, and praise before God. Rather than offering polished words we think God wants to hear, we're invited into honest and reverent prayer with the One who already knows our thoughts and words.
