“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and
thankful.” (Colossians 4:2 NIV)
Prayer is an effort of the will. After we have
entered our secret place and have shut the door, the most difficult thing to do
is to pray; we cannot get our minds into working order, and the first thing
that conflicts is wandering thoughts… We must have a settled place for prayer,
and when we get there, the plague of flies begins -- this must be done, that
must be done.
--
Oswald Chambers in “My Utmost for His Highest”
