Daily Chizuk #1393

One of the greatest ways of empowering our tefilot is by believing in them more. When someone gets used to asking for the same thing day after day, even though he wants it so much, he tends to lose the energy and emotion that a good tefila requires. Sometimes, it gets to a point where tefila becomes just another box to check instead of the wondrous meeting between us and our creator that it's supposed to be.
A few words of chizuk can go a very long way. People who have been praying for something for years by rote, who suddenly got the right inspiration, have boosted their tefilot immensely and seen amazing results.
Prayer can do wonders, but we must give it the respect that it deserves.
