Luke 11:1 ” Lord, teach us to pray…”

Charles Hodge once wrote, “Prayer is the converse of the soul with God.” Within our prayers we express adoration, bare our souls, pour out thanksgiving, and offer up petitions to a God that is not only willing to listen, but move powerfully in our favor. Prayer is the way that the life of God within us is nourished & cared for. Now we may only look upon prayer as simply a means of getting things for ourselves…but the Biblical purpose of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself. The old saying goes, “Prayer Changes Things”…which is kind of right. Prayer changes me & the way I look at things…giving me God’s perspective, in order that I can change things from the inside out.
