Out and About

Walking      

• As you walk, wherever you are going (even when pushing a pushchair!), take the opportunity to pray about where you are going and your day.
• Prayer walks - where you just walk and use all the things, places and people as prompts to pray.
• As you walk with your children to school or wherever, talk about the things God has created or even sing worship songs as you go along.

Praying at the playground, if your children are of an age when you can just watch them play.

Take a reminder

• If you feel you need reminding of God's prescence carry a stone or something similar in your pocket.  It can act as a reminder to send up a short prayer.
• Write bible verses on bits of card and carry them round in your back pocket. A verse or short passage that is significant at the time.  You can pull it out and read it, keeping it fresh in your mind, throughout the day.
• Carry a pocket bible in your bag so if you find yourself waiting somewhere you can read a passage.
• Carry a regular prayer list of people and issues which you can turn to at free moment during the day and have a moments prayer.

In the car

• If you normally have music or the radio on in the background  in the car - turn it off and put Christian music or teaching stuff on instead now and then.
• Praying in the car if the children are quiet (asleep!).
