...pray without ceasing, and in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18
How to Pray without Ceasing
3. Incorporate prayer into everyday chores.
Let your everyday tasks become acts of worship by turning them into times of prayer. As you fold laundry, pray for each family member—and then if your laundry piles are as high as mine, and you’re done praying but not done folding, branch out from there. Pray for your child’s soccer teammates, for the teachers standing in front of your children’s classrooms, for the partner who works hard to pay the bills, for health to stay active, for the workplaces where the clothes are worn. Or simply give thanks for the warmth of the home where you relax in those pajamas.

This is a great suggestion and one that I use myself. And one benefit is for those that dislike doing chores, is that when you center your thoughts on God, and pray for those things that concern you, time goes faster and soon the chores are done and you have accomplished more than you would have otherwise.
God doesn't mind if you aren't on your knees every time you call on him. The time and place do not matter to him. He is there for you, no matter your circumstance.
Thanks for coming by today, Friends. God bless you
