Alma 37:37


Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.

This is another version of "pray always." We are to pray over everything, not just the big stuff. Everything matters. Our last prayer of the night is a report of our day's endeavors, with all of its triumphs and failures. Each morning our first thought should be of God, with gratitude for a new day to start over and try again to learn and do his will as we battle the natural man. When we live a prayerful life, God will not let us fail.
