Thank you for this precious gift of being able to pray to you.

How great is the good which God works in a soul when He gives it a disposition to pray in earnest. 

~~Teresa of Avila 

This morning’s prayer and meditation for Sally’s healing comes from Take Heart, Oh God: Riches from the Greatest Christian Women Writers of All Time.

Prayer is a magnificent gift. Prayer allows you, a mere human being, direct access to your heavenly Father.

Prayer before meals is nice, but think of how little time it takes to do that: fifteen second times three meals per day. If our prayer life consists of praying only before meals, then we are spending less than one minute per day engaged in one of the most precious blessings of the Christian life!

Don’t be afraid to pray—God isn’t expecting fancy words or high theology. He is expecting to hear your praises, concerns, and requests. Talk to him like you would a dear friend. The more time you spend in earnest prayer, the more time you will want to spend each and every day. You’ll find that your time with God in earnest prayer is the greatest gift you have ever received. And the good he works in your soul will change your life.
