I must confess for years I was discontent with my daily communion with God. Looking back, my frustration was because I deeply wanted to connect with God but always walked away feeling there was something missing. In some seasons I have dug myself deeper into scripture and neglected prayer. In sometimes I have dived deeper into prayer and found myself neglecting daily scripture reading. I praise God for amazing devotional books that helped me through some seasons. For a while,  I would read them and pray while I set aside time to read my daily reading in the evening. This tension began to subside when I learned a way to read scripture and pray at the same time.
