Pass It On...


Prayer

Posted: Aug 26, 2013 01:00 am

If we presumed that what God is most up to, what God is most concerned about, what God is most active in is focused on us, then our prayer would likely turn into a rather petty occasion of spiritual narcissism rather than a participation in the transcendent life of God.
