Prayer processing #3

So, I've been making you read pages of books lately, and I'm going to make you do it again today as well. 

What I'm posting today does not make sense to me. It's not sitting right with me. And when that happens it's either because if these two reasons.
        1. It's truth and I don't want to obey
        2. It's false and I should flee it. 

It's tricky when you don't know which one is the right one--moving forward and not knowing which one is right will lead me to very different places. 

Here's my page quotes: 

[I cut things out of these pages, I just am showing you the main thing I am wrestling with]

picture#1 this sounds great but why doesn't she tell me where that happens in scripture? Where is this concept shown?

Picture#2 I didn't feel compelled to pray. I thought of things I should maybe pray for out of Christian duty, but not this deep inner compelled feeling that I need pray now for and in

Picture#3 so sense I didn't feel that feeling God is not drawing me? I also don't get where this traintrack illustration is coming from...where does the bible talk about this concept. 

Today's homework seems creepy and unbiblical to me.. I really really want to know where these concepts and word pictures come out of the bible... Having them not point back to it makes me feel like I'm reading a Joyce Myers book. (I've actually never read Joyce Myers, but this seems to be her MO) 

Learning is wrestling through things, so I know that this is a good process for me. I just can't quit in it.
