Book Review 10: QUIET TALKS ON PRAYER
[symple_skillbar title=”Order the hard copy” percentage=”64″ color=”#132670″ show_percent=”true”]
This book is a gem that was recommended to me by another missionary. The language makes it a slower read, but still definitely worth it. I bought it on Kindle for a dollar or two.
Here is an excerpt:
Prayer opens a whole planet to a man’s activities. I can as really be touching hearts for God in far away India or China through prayer, as though I were there. Not in as many ways as though there, but as truly. Understand me; I think the highest possible privilege of service is in those far off lands. There the need is greatest, the darkness densest, and the pleading call most eloquently pathetic. And if one may go there – happy man! – if one be privileged to go to the honoured place of service he may then use all five outlets direct in the spot where he is.
Yet this is only one spot. But his relationship is as wide as his Master’s and his sympathies should be. A man may be in Africa, but if his heart be in touch with Jesus it will be burning for a world. Prayer puts us into direct dynamic touch with a world.
