Love transforms.
Love makes empty hearts overflow.
This happens even more
when we have to struggle through
without assistance,
all unready
for the play
of Love.
In prayer, seek to make yourself into a vessel for God's Presence. See yourself as nothing; only one who is nothing can contain the fullness of the Presence.
There are times when the love of God burns so powerfully within your heart that the words of prayer seem to rush forth, quickly and without deliberation.
At such times it is not you yourself who speak; rather it is THROUGH you that the words are spoken.
~ from YOUR WORD IS FIRE by Dr. Arthur Green and Barry W. Holtz
