Living a Life of Prayer

Ralph E. Wagers

It is natural for us to turn daily to God in prayer—as natural as it is for us to breathe. If our prayer is more spiritually enlightened each day, we shall be less likely to think of ourselves as self-Sufficient and so unwittingly permit our insufficiency to rebuke us.

"I can of mine own self do nothing," declared Christ Jesus, adding, "I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me" (John 5:30). A stream would dry up if it were shut off from its source. Likewise, our spiritual identity would be lost if we could shut ourselves off from God: but this is scientifically impossible because man is actually inseparable from God.
