"Prayer is not simply getting things from God, that is a most initial form of prayer; prayer is getting into perfect communion with God. If the Son of God is formed in us by regeneration, He will press forward in front of our common sense and change our attitude to the things about which we pray." --Oswald Chambers
Teaching me still.... and oh how my prayers have changed in the past year. Although I am still utterly amazed with how I seem to beg God for answers, when prayer isn't about the results. It's about the time spent with the Lord, and enjoying all that brings! Why does that get so shelved in my life? An odd sinner this girl is...
"We lean to our own understanding, or we bank on service and do away with prayer, and consequently by succeeding in the external we fail in the eternal, because in the eternal we succeed only by prevailing prayer. "--Oswald Chambers
Thank you Oswald Chambers for the nice wake up call.
