~last prayer gathering of the year~

There is nothing that makes us love a man/woman so much as praying for him/her...

- William Law

Simple truths are hard to swallow and be lived out. And prayer is one of them. Prayer is something so basic and simple yet it is often laid aside because of my business and laziness. Was challenged by Khai Ying today to put prayer gathering as something of priority for 2009. I guess my absence does show my lack of love for the community. Of cos that love for the community can be expressed by other means but prayer gathering is one of them as well. And the quote by William Law puts it so plainly. How much I love a person/thing can be seen in the amount of time I spend praying for it. I recall my own prayer life that truly, when matters are pressing and close to the heart, I will spend more time praying about it. May God grant me a bigger heart to learn to love much more than I am today! And yes, to go for prayer gathering more regularly too!
