Angry? Pray. Confused? Pray. Doubting? Pray. Ready to give up? Pray. 

Because the prayer you're not proud of is better than the one you won't pray. God isn't asking you to clean up your emotions or find the perfect words before you come to Him. Whatever you're carrying, bring it to Him honestly today and pray anyway.
