unhurried attention
so many things to do. it's only friday and the entire of my next week is already planned. it's packed from morning to night every single day. what a nice week... with His grace, i will survive. ec3304 is really totally above and over my head. i can't understand a single thing. seriously. well.... whatever. just laugh it off.
some portions of the book i read last night... it's about prayer.
-prayer does not mean asking God for all kinds of things, it is rather the desire for God Himself, the Giver of Life.
-when we are converted from self-centredness to God-centredness, we discover true prayer.
-true prayer develops our intimacy with God, pays UNHURRIED ATTENTION to Him and results in our cherishing and enjoying His presence.
-we need to build our lives around prayer (not the other way round). Jesus had regular times of prayer no matter how busy He was.
true. honest. just. pure. lovely. good report. virtue. praise.
help me to trust.
