As one example Ritway Brown while working at Belinsky Aircraft spent many hours at a time praying and meditating on Scripture. Ritway reviewed Bible verses that he had memorized , taking time to dwell on the meaning of those verses and to think and ponder about how best to apply them in his life.
Next Ritway as a Greyhound bus driver, turned boredom into spiritual benefit and benefits. Rit copes with and actually profits from the boredom in his job in two ways. First he memorizes Scripture. Though he is now 58 years of age ( and some say older people cannot memorize as well) Rit has learnt fifty new verses within the last year. While driving he both learns new verses and reivews old ones , to keep clear his memory.
Rit also spends much time praying. He does not just toss a quick greeting to everyone. Instead he has created a well defined prayer list that he works through. After spending time praising and thanking the Lord , he prays for his extended family. Next he prays for a “critical list” of urgent problems. Fourth he prays for all Christian pastors, beginning with his own. Finally he prays for missionaries , including those that helps supports.
