Prayer is the lipsing of the believing infant,
the shout of the fighting believer,
the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus.
It is the breath, the watchword,
the comfort, the strength,
the honour of a Christian.
If thou be a child of God,
thou wilt seek thy Father’s face,
and live in thy Father’s love.
– Charles Spurgeon
(1834-1892)
