Prayer.....

"I want a life of greater, deeper, truer, prayer." I echo these words of Archbishop Tait who lived during the 19th century. Prayer is a topic that has many questions, and probably just as many answers if not more. In no way do I claim to have an understanding of this complex topic, but I do know this, that prayer, when done right, is the most intimate, fullfilling, and satisfying time spent with our Lord.

This week I have had the desire placed on my heart to begin an in depth study of this topic. Maybe this is the point the disciples had reached in their lives when they asked Jesus himself, "Lord, teach us to pray."

And that shall be my prayer and maybe it can be yours too.

Lord teach "us" how to pray. Help us to know how to commune with you, when to be silent, when to speak, when to praise, when to adore, when to give thanks, when to confess, when to weep. Restore us all: Transform us all: For your glory!
