Keep Pulling that Rope; Keep Praying
By Bill Dunn

The Essence of Prayer - Gently Trying
The Essence of Prayer - Gently Trying
By David Torkington
Prayer is a process of continual inner conversion that involves gently trying to turn, open and surrender the heart to God. As the process is practised, the heart of man is made accessible to the heart of God, and his love shafts down to purify and empty it, so that Christ can come to birth again in all of us.
