It’s impossible to have a real relationship with someone we never talk to, isn’t it?
That’s why prayer is so important! When we pray, no matter what we’re saying, we’re connecting with God.
So, why then do a lot of us struggle to pray? There’s a whole host of reasons. We all could probably name at least one right now.
To help inspire all of you (and myself) today, I’ve decided to share some of the most challenging quotes about prayer out there. Here they are:
“Prayer is God’s plan to supply man’s great and continuous need with God’s great and continuous abundance.” – E.M. Bounds
“Oddly enough, many people struggle to pray because they are focusing on praying, not on God.”– Paul Miller
“The infallible test of spiritual integrity, Jesus says, is your private prayer life.” – Tim Keller
“One of the great uses of Twitter and Facebook will be to prove at the Last Day that prayerlessness was not from lack of time.” – John Piper
“Audacious faith is not passive. Neither is audacious prayer. Every aspiration you have in prayer needs an accompanying action. Otherwise, you’re not really praying. You’re just pontificating. You do the natural. Trust God for the super.” – Steven Furtick
“I am convinced that prayer is not only our greatest
“The first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day is to have my soul happy in the Lord.” – George Muller
