==Prayer==
Prayer is only a particular form given to [human] that will, aspiration and faith. Its forms are very often crude and not only childlike, which is in itself no defect, but childish ; but still it has a real power and significance. Its power and sense is to put the will, aspiration and faith of man into touch with the divine Will as that of a conscious Being with whom we can enter into conscious and living relations. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/24/the-godward-emotions#p9</ref>
Not prayer insisting on immediate fulfilment, but prayer that is itself a communion of the mind and heart with the Divine and can have the joy and satisfaction of itself, trusting for fulfilment by the Divine in his own time. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/depression-and-despondency#p52</ref>
