prayer

my boy John White on prayer...

"we must remind ourselves again of the basic nature of prayer: a response to God's initiative". [I am wondering if that statement is true in all its simplicity.]

White quoting C.S. Lewis, "God whispers to us in our pleasures but shouts to us in our pain."

"Longing is always understood clearly by God."

"Evangelical Christians are far to ready to treat God as a heavenly buddy."
