Jesus was matter-of-fact: "Embrace this God-life.
Really embrace it, and nothing will be too much for you.
Mark 11:22-25

If you ever had a question about if we should pray or what should we pray about, then question no more! We have the answer from Jesus Himself through Mark's version of The Gospel!!! Continuing from the verse noted above, Jesus says the following:
"...This mountain, for instance: Just say, 'Go jump in the lake'—no shuffling or shilly-shallying—and it's as good as done. That's why I urge you to pray for absolutely everything, ranging from small to large. Include everything as you embrace this God-life, and you'll get God's everything. (emphasis added)
Look, many of us say, "Why won't God speak to me?" The answer might be because we are not praying. Jesus is URGING us to Pray for ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!
But...I like what Jesus says, next...
And when you assume the posture of prayer, remember that it's not all asking. If you have anything against someone, forgive—only then will your heavenly Father be inclined to also wipe your slate clean of sins." (emphasis added)
We must approach God Almighty with a spirit of forgiveness. According to Mark 11.22-25, If we have a bitter and unforgiving heart, then God will not wipe our slate clean...
