"Remember that it is not hasty reading, but serious meditation on holy and heavenly truths, that makes them prove sweet and profitable to the soul. It is not the mere touching of the flower by the bee that gathers honey, but her abiding for a time on the flower that draws out the sweet. It is not he that reads most, but he that meditates most, that will prove to be the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian." (Thomas Brooks)

Beautiful teachings on prayer! I like to think that God wants to be part of our lives in both the greater and in the lesser things that call for our attention. He wants to be with us and is with us if we would simply be still and know that He is God. That stillness is a stilling and a silencing of all the doubts and fears that say we are not within that hedge of Divine Protection, that we are not overshadowed by His wings or sheltered within His Divine Presence. All such fear and doubt based thoughts are illusions for He is in all, through all and above all.
Yours in the Love of Christ,
John
