Here are some of the habits I have been working on to practice the presence of God, when I am waiting for the kettle to boil, the computer to warm up, when I am walking, in a tram, having a break, when I wake during the night, when nothing much is happening!  Maybe some of these will help you: 

Daily mundane tasks. I remind myself to ‘offer my body to God as a living sacrifice’ (Rom 12:2), and to ‘serve the Lord Christ’ (Col 2:24), as I prepare food, wash the dishes, clean the house, wash the dogs, go shopping, etc.

People. Whenever I think of someone, or meet someone, or see someone, I pray for them and commit them to God. If they are believers, then I follow Paul’s example and thank God for them before I pray for them. I try to practise ‘constant prayer’ (see Col. 1:9). If no one comes to mind, I pray for family, friends, my church, people in ministry in Australia, overseas mission partners, Australia’s indigenous peoples, those in need, my neighbours, Australia, the nations of the world, etc.

My body. Truly I am ‘fearfully and wonderfully made!’ (Ps 139:14).So I try to remember to thank God for keeping me alive. The gift of fresh air and lungs that work; the gift of food and drink and a digestive system that works. The gift of seeing, hearing, tasting, smelling. The gift of a heart and blood to keep me alive. And increasingly I ask God to repair bits that are not working so well, and/or to help me live wisely with them.

The creation. I love the sky, clouds, the sun, moon and stars. I want to get into the habit of praising God for anything that is in my mind or that I see or smell or feel or hear. They are all works and gifts of God.

Worries, plans, regrets. If I don’t fill my mind with intentional thoughts, it fills itself with worries, plans, and regrets. I deal with these by turning them into prayers, entrusting these matters to God.

Driving. I am naturally a competitive driver. To counter this godless tendency, I try to remember to love my neighbours on the road, and one great way to do this is to pray for each one! [I do not shut my eyes when praying.]

I reflect on verses from the Bible. These are from parts of the Bible I have read recently, or from the sermon I heard last Sunday.The Bible invites us not only to read, but to meditate on God’s words (Deut 6:4-9; Psalm 1:2; Psalm 119, etc.).

I ponder them, meditate on them, and then turn them into praise, prayer, lament, confession, or trust.

The daily news. So much news is bad news, and we are humanly powerless to do much about much bad news. Whenever I think of an item of news, I turn it into a prayer that God would act, and that if he wants me to act, that he would prod me to do so.

I reflect on God’s global gospel plan for people from every nation to become believers in Christ. So if I think about a nation, I pray for gospel ministry there. If I think about a church or a minister, I pray. And then I often pray my default ‘God’s global gospel plan prayers’, that God would raise up workers for his great harvest, that God would convert ‘unconvertible’ people, that Jesus would build his church, that he would bring his church to maturity, and that God would sustain gospel workers, care for those being martyred today, and help all believers to grow in grace, godliness, and usefulness to God.

On a walk. Here I spend half my time praising God for the beauty of all he has made, and half my time praying for people I am thinking about, the people I see, or, if there is no one around, for the people who live in the houses I am passing.

Distractions. I am easily distracted. I try to turn my distractions into prayers. For my distractions are usually my worries or fears. The best thing to do is to pray them.

God. I praise him that he is the God I can call on ‘anytime, anywhere, about anything’, because God is everywhere, all the time! I thank him I don’t have to make appointments to pray, that nothing is too small or too big to bring to him in prayer. I praise him for his power, holiness, majesty, wisdom and steadfast love. I praise him for his gospel plan for this world to save sinners and make saints. I praise him for creation and salvation. I praise him for the Lord Jesus, and for the Holy Spirit. I rejoice, lament, grieve, trust, give thanks, entrust, submit, and offer myself to him, to live for his glory. I pray for people I love and serve.

My activities today and in the next few days. I ponder these, ask God to direct me, and pray for the people I will serve. I also ask God to prepare me for the unexpected events and activities, and that I will accept them graciously rather than grumpily! I tell God that I trust that he has the details of my daily life in his hands.

My activities over the past week. I ponder these, thank God for them, ask God to forgive and over-rule the mistakes and sins I have committed, and pray for the people I have met, served or helped.

The big issues in my life. These often come into my mind, so I commit them to God, ask for his wisdom, and pray that he would work out his good purposes in my life.
