Child of God, do not let your heart grow weary when the night seems long or when the silence of heaven presses upon you. The Lord is near to those who call upon Him in truth. Prayer is not words cast into emptiness, but the breath of the soul lifted into the bosom of the Father. When your lips move with faith, even trembling faith, the Spirit Himself carries your petitions as incense before the throne.
Do not measure prayer by its sweetness or by visible answers, but by its faithfulness. A candle burns steadily whether or not it is noticed; so also let your prayer burn, unseen by men, but bright before the eyes of God. And though storms may come and trials wound your peace, keep the lamp of faith trimmed with oil, for the Bridegroom does not delay.
Hold fast, beloved, to fervent prayer, for through it you walk in company with the saints and angels. Through it the soul learns to dwell already in the Kingdom. The Lord is compassionate; He will not despise your persistence. And at the proper time, His light will scatter the shadows, and His peace will embrace you.
Blessings,
Dan
