Oswald Chambers: Prayer - A Holy Occupationنموونە

Every time we pray, our horizon is altered, our attitude to things is altered, not sometimes but every time, and the amazing thing is that we don’t pray more. Prayer is a complete emancipation, it keeps us on the spiritual plane. When you are at one with another mind there is a telepathic influence all the time, and when born from above the communion is between God and yourself.

Specific times and places and communion with God go together. It is by no haphazard chance that in every age men have risen early to pray.

Reflection Questions: How has my mind been altered by prayer? What thoughts have come to my mind during prayer that might never have occurred to me if I hadn’t taken time to pray?
