More About A Praying Life: Connecting with God in a Distracting World

Learning to pray doesnt offer us a less busy life; it offers us a less busy heart. In the midst of outer busyness Paul E. Miller, A Praying Life: Connecting with God in a Distracting World Instead of fighting anxiety, we can use it as a springboard to bending our hearts to God. Instead of trying to suppress anxiety, manage it, or smother it with pleasure, we can turn our anxiety toward God. When we do that, well discover that weve slipped into continuous praying. Paul E. Miller, A Praying Life: Connecting with God in a Distracting World If you are not praying, then you are quietly confident that time, money, and talent are all you need in life. You'll always be a little too tired, a little too busy. But, if like Jesus you realize you can't do life on your own, then no matter how busy,no matter how tired you are, you will find the time to pray. Paul E.

I had asked my pastor to recommend a book on prayer, this was the one he recommended. I had read others, like E.M. Bounds, George Mueller, and Rees Howells. My frustration with books on prayer is that they always seem impossible, impractical, and overly pious--something reserved for super saints, of whom I am not one.Miller's book on...
