Praying Mantis

This little bug looks a little like a grasshopper, but do you know what it is? That's right a praying mantis. The name comes from their front legs. Their front legs are folded like praying hands. But the bug isn't praying. God made this bug with the front legs folded to look the way it does. 

Sometimes boys and girls fold their hands in church. They look like the praying mantis, but like the praying mantis, they aren't really praying. They just look like they are. Prayer is more than folding your hands or positioning yourself on your knees. Prayer is talking to God.

You can talk to God when you're riding your bike. You can talk to him as you walk to the store. Prayer isn't about a location. You don't have to be in church or on your knees. It isn't about folded hands, its about conversation. God wants you to talk to Him, just like you would your best friend. You are so precious to Him and He wants you to know Him. He wants you to talk to Him every single day.
