Translations:TC 9: How to Pray/23/en

Prayer is spiritual nurture for the growing soul. Talking to God and listening for His response, is part of His design to nurture us as we mature in Him. Just as a small child needs nourishment and love to grow strong physically, we need regular food for our souls if we want to mature spiritually. Now and then a day may slip by when we forget to feed on God’s Word or communicate with the Father and there may be no apparent ill effects. But if we continue to deprive ourselves of steady nourishment, we will quickly begin to show the signs of spiritual malnutrition. In times of stress we’ll discover that we have lost the strength to live victorious, fruitful lives.
