Prayer with no catches

J. Thomas Black

To some, prayer is a "Catch-22": We have to pray to be inspired, but we have to be inspired to pray! If fear or doubt blocks out inspiration, how can we even start to pray? It seems like a cruel paradox.

Truth may at first seem a whisper, but it can also fill our thought like the sound of a symphony in crescendo.
