Prayer request.. For praying.

Hey guys.. New here so forgive me for starting off with a prayer request.. But, as of lately I have been really struggling in my prayer time.. Due to the busy home life I spend the hour-and-a-half solo commute to work as my time with the Lord.. I've been doing this for a while now, but within the past few weeks its seems like my prayer time is very.. Dry.. (For lack of a better term?).. It seems I am stuck in a rut of prayer.. I do praise and try to focus on God's Grace throught my time praying, but lately it seems like I become easily distracted (crazy traffic, thoughts of the day before me, etc).. Until recently I found to be very enthusiastic and joyful when it came to my prayer time.. But lately its has almost become.. Well.. A burden? Is God trying to tell me something? I mean, I spend time in His Word on a regular basis, attend church and listen to Christian praise music.. But when it comes to prayer.. Its like I'm just speaking them for the sake of "praying" and not for the communion aspect of what prayer time should be?.. PLEASE PRAY for me! And any advice anyone might have for a whipper snapper like me would be much appreciated!!

 

Thanks for your encouraging words following-Him..
I know I'm not alone in this.. After all, we are mortal vessels trying to communicate with an Immortal God.. So it goes without saying that we are going to have our up and down times with such.. But thank you again! I will deffinately read through the Psalms and stay close to Him!
