Prayer

I was thinking about prayer recently and here are some thoughts about prayer that I like ...

There is a vast difference between saying prayers and praying.

To be a Christian without praying is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

Prayer is when you talk to God; meditation is when you listen to God. - Diana Robinson

A grandfather was walking through his yard when he heard his granddaughter repeating the alphabet in a tone of voice that sounded like a prayer. He asked her what she was doing. The little girl explained: "I'm praying, but I can't think of exactly the right words, so I'm just saying all the letters, and God will put them together for me, because He knows what I'm thinking." - Charles B. Vaughan
