Backblast
Currently in Q Source, mammon, prayer, and study. In “Toward God” by Michael Casey, the author speaks about the power of honestly and vulnerably sharing our desires with God:
“Whenever we pray we look up from our emptiness toward an unseen abundance, and ask to be filled. This may seem to reduce prayer to acquisitiveness…Sometimes prayers are made inappropriately, but in the long term this is no real problem: praying tends to straighten things out. We should pray as we feel, leaving it to God to sort out what is genuine prayer and what is delusion. Jesus told us forthrightly to ask, to knock, and to keep on seeking. He tells us not to hesitate in our prayer, as though discerning whether it is appropriate (Mark 11:23, James 1:6). We are to be confident that our father is too indulgent to bother about minor slips of form (Matthew 6:8).”
