「當我們一開始禱告時,禱告會感覺像是在嘗試說服神來執行祂的旨意;但由於神比我們更渴慕祂的旨意行在地上,神真的不需要太多的說服。神一定有其他的理由來要我們禱告。在我們持續禱告下去之後,我們會發現原來神的用意就是:藉著禱告,神想要塑造出一個渴慕、降服、信靠、和順服祂旨意的人。藉著禱告,神可以觀察出哪個人是真正信靠、渴慕、和順服神旨意的人。」 -馬強盛/顏美娟夫婦
“When we first begin to pray, prayer will feel like attempting to convince God to do His will. But since God desires His will be done on earth more than we do, God really doesn’t need to be convinced much. So God must have other reasons to get us to pray. When we continue to pray, we will discover that God’s intent was that, through prayer, God wants to mold a person that would cooperate with, trust, desire, and obey His will. In addition, through prayer, God can see which person is the one that truly trusts, desires, and obeys for His will.” -Johnson and Pearl
