“...Jesus opens his arms to his needy children and says, "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest"(Matthew 11:28, NASB). The criteria for coming to Jesus is weariness. Come overwhelmed with life. Come with you wandering mind. Come messy.”
― Paul E. Miller, A Praying Life: Connecting With God In A Distracting World

“We don't know how bad we are until we try to be good. Nothing exposes our selfishness and spiritual pwerlessness like prayer.”
― Paul E. Miller, A Praying Life: Connecting With God In A Distracting World

“Learning to pray doesn't offer us a less busy life; it offersus aless busy heart.”
― Paul E. Miller, A Praying Life: Connecting With God In A Distracting World

“In order to pray like a child, you might need to unlearn the nonpersonal, nonreal praying that you've been taught.”
