Lord’s Prayer 2

 How does our world minimize the holiness of God?  Have we watered down Hos purity and righteousness so much that we do not even think some actions are sinful?  I’ve diluted His holiness in my praying by thinking that prayer is much like an ATM machine, making transactions, giving to get. But when we consider who He is, we ought to be on our knees in surrender mode to Him. 

“Prayer is the only entryway into genuine self-knowledge. It is also the main way we experience deep change—the reordering of our loves. Prayer is how God gives us so many of the unimaginable things he has for us. Indeed, prayer makes it safe for God to give us many of the things we most desire. It is the way we know God, the way we finally treat God as God. Prayer is simply the key to everything we need to do and be in life.”” - Tim Keller, Prayer, p. 18
