2. I can’t wait to go play baseball
Chazal tell us:
Don’t make
your davening
a mechanical
routine
I can’t wait to go play baseball

3. We shouldn’t
say the words
of our tefilot
without
thinking
about what
they mean

4. We should remember that Davening is our time to speak to the
Master of the World
To thank Him for everything He does for us
To ask Him for things that we need or want

5. If someone thanked you but didn’t seem to mean it…
Thanks for that… uh… you know… that thing that you did…whatever…

6. Would you feel appreciated?
Thanks for that… uh… you know… that thing that you did…whatever…
Is she thanking me? Does she even remember what I did for her?

7. but didn’t seem to care about it…
If someone asked you
for something,
but didn’t seem to care about it…
Could you do me a favor? I’ll tell you about it some other time.– I want to go talk to my friends now.

8. Why should I bother doing it if she doesn’t really care about it?
Would you want to do
what she asked?
Why should I bother doing it if she doesn’t really care about it?
Could you do me a favor? I’ll tell you about it some other time – I want to go talk to my friends now.

9. How can we expect Hashem to listen to our Tefilot
If we act like
we don’t care about
what we’re davening for?

10. We should think
about the words
of our davening
like we mean them
and say them

12. אַל תַּעַשֹ תְּפִילָתְךָ קֶבַע
Don’t make
your davening
a mechanical
routine
