Magnificent Prayer #12
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
Matthew 19:14
You say you do not know how to pray?…Follow the leading of simplicity in prayer, there can never be excess of it, for God loves to see us like little children in His presence.
JEAN-PIERRE DE CAUSSADE
Pray About It: God designed prayer to be simple, not hard. The kingdom of God is, in fact, for those who would become like little children before their Father.
Today, your prayers should be simple and direct, not lavish and vague.
In this respect, less is more. Better a few words from an overflowing heart than a verbal dictionary emanating from a cold, religious heart.
Live as a child of God, then you will be able to pray as a child, and as a child you will most assuredly be heard.
