Prayer Quote of the Day

“Many people have found prayer impossible because they thought they should only pray for wonderful but remote needs they actually had little or no interest in or even knowledge of. Prayer simply dies from efforts to pray about ‘good things’ that honestly do not matter to us. The way to get to meaningful prayer for those good things is to start by praying for what we are truly interested in. The circle of our interests will inevitably grow in the largeness of God’s love.”

Dallas Willard

Prayer Bible Verse of the Day

“.. if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

2 Chronicles (NIV)



Prayer of the Day

O merciful God, whatever You may deny me, do not deny me this love.

Save me from the idolatry of loving the world, or any of the things of the world.
Let me never love any creature but for Your sake and in subordination to Your love.
Take full possession of my heart; raise there Your throne and command there as You do in heaven.

Being created by You, let me live to You;
being created for You, let me ever act for Your glory;
being redeemed by You, let me render to You what is Yours
and let my spirit ever cleave to You alone.
