There are times when I began to pray and quickly realize that I'm being formal, "religious" and not so much relational and God feels far off and I remind myself that He is my Abba Father and He loves me with an unfathomable love. He wants me to communicate with Him like I do my amazing earthly father and then I drop the religious talk so to speak and just communicate with my Father who is WITH me and knows me and loves me.
