“What do I lose when I have a praying life? Control. Independence. What do I gain? Friendship with God. A quiet heart. The living work of God in the hearts of those I love.”
“He (God) wants our material needs to draw us into our soul needs.”
“One reason we don’t ask a mature friend these questions is Western individualism.”
“Usually, what bugs us the most about other people is true of us as well.”
“If you slow down and reflect, you’ll begin to see whole areas of your life where you’ve been prayerless”
“At the center of self-will is me, carving a world in my image. At the center of prayer is God, carving me in his Son’s image.”
from A Praying Life by P. Miller
