I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time.
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
The function of prayer is not to influence God, but rather to change the nature of the one who prays.
What makes a religion false? If any religion is right, then maybe they all have to be right. Maybe God doesn't care how you say your prayers, just as long as you say them.
Peace, perfect peace, in this dark world of sin? The Blood of Jesus whispers peace within.
