This is the spiritual discipline that I desire the most growth in 2008. Jason and I are reading a book about Charles Spurgeon, and the first chapter is all about prayer. Here is an excellent quote from him on prayer: "Sometimes we think we are too busy to pray. That is a great mistake, for praying is a saving of time. You remember Luther's remark, 'I have so much to do today that I shall never get through it with less than three hours' prayer.'...If we have no time we must make time, for if God has given us time for secondary duties, He must have given us time for primary ones, and to draw near to Him is a primary duty, and we must let nothing set it on one side. Your other engagements will run smoothly if you do not forget your engagement with God."<BR/><BR/>I'm excited to read your blog and stay caught up in your life since we are separated by geography.

Not to ask him for things that I think would make my life better, but just to align myself with Him and ask for His will in my life.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04178253987042244423noreply@blogger.com
