This is a very helpful book by Paul Miller. I’ve really been encouraged and exhorted by it. Here are some quotes:
“The only way to come to God is by taking off any spiritual mask. The real you has to meet the real God. He is a person.”
“We are often so busy and overwhelmed that when we slow down to pray, we don’t know where our hearts are.”
“So the feel of a praying life is cautious optimism – caution because of the Fall, optimism because of redemption.”
This reminds me of “pessimism kills faith” from last summer from which am daily reminded that optimism builds faith.
