1 | Not how they pray, but how they think | Jer 17:7 | DocTrinsograce | 237128 | ||
"He who comes to God in prayer, comes not in a spirit of self-assertion, but in a spirit of trustful dependence. No one ever addressed God in prayer thus: 'O God, Thou knowest that I am the architect of my own fortunes and the determiner of my own destiny. Thou mayest indeed do something to help me in the securing of my purposes after I have decided upon them. But my heart is my own, and Thou canst not intrude into it; my will is my own, and Thou canst not bend it. When I wish Thy aid, I will call on Thee for it. Meanwhile, Thou must await my pleasure.' Men may reason somewhat like this; but that is not the way they pray." --Benjamin Breckinridge Warfield (1851-1921) | ||||||
