PRAYER
• CCC 2559:
"Prayer is the raising of one's mind and heart to God or the requesting of good things from God." But when we pray, do we speak from the height of our pride and will, or "out of the depths" of a humble and contrite heart? He who humbles himself will be exalted; humility is the foundation of prayer, Only when we humbly acknowledge that "we do not know how to pray as we ought," are we ready to receive freely the gift of prayer. "Man is a beggar before God."
GOD, the Alpha
GOD + HIS LOVE
HUMAN + PRAY & LOVE
HUMAN + PRAY & LOVE
GOD + HIS LOVE
Mark 11:24 & Law of Attraction
Mark 11:24 “therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours.”
Matthew 7:6
Do not give what is holy to dogs, or throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under foot, and turn and tear you into pieces
CCC 2560
"If you knew the gift of God!" The wonder of prayer is revealed beside the well where we come seeking water: there, Christ comes to meet every human being. It is he who first seeks us and asks us for a drink. Jesus thirsts; his asking arises from the depths of God's desire for us. Whether we realize it or not, prayer is the encounter of God's thirst with ours. God thirsts that we may thirst for him.
