Quote

Faith gives wings to prayer, and without it we cannot fly up to Heaven. 

St. John Climacus, “The Ladder of Divine Ascent,” (Boston: Holy Transfiguration Monastery, 1978), Step28: On Holy and Blessed Prayer, the Mother of Virtues, and on the Attitude of Mind and Body in Prayer

Challenge

Enhance your quiet time in the same way as Bob from the story before- set up an empty chair beside and speak to God in faith that He is beside you and listening

Prayer

Father God, when my strength is gone, I am unable—but Your Word says I can do all thing through Christ who strengthens me. Give me Your strength, not physical strength but the power to move mountains that flows from faith in You. Help me to depend on You to do what I think I cannot do. Let your strength alone sustain me. Help me to renew my faith in You day by day so I am ever blessed with your presence.
