Prayer

"Everyone prays. Even non-Christians pray. The difference when Christians do it is that they are climbing into the lap of their heavenly Father." -- John Dawson

"Henri Nouwen pointed out in his book, The Way of the Heart, the literal translation of the phrase 'pray always' is 'come to rest.' The Greek word for rest is hesychia and so nowen wrote, 'Hesychia, the rest which flows from unceasing prayer, needs to be sought at all costs, even when the flesh is itchy, the world alluring and hte demons noisy.' " -- Peter Greig, Red Moon Rising

Red Moon Rising is the story of Peter Greig and the 24-7 prayer movement. It is challenging, inspiring... so good, and I can't put it down. If you get a chance, you should check this one out.
