The Intimacy of Prayer: Stepping into God’s Presence
Prayer is one of the basic practices of the Christian life. It is one of the most intimate and encouraging experiences that the follower of Jesus can have. But it can also be frustrating, mundane, obligatory, even disappointing.
Prayer is when we ask for his kingdom to come and his will to be done. It is us inviting God into our lives. And when we do that, we are also stepping into his life as those who live in his kingdom and may be used to bring his will.
