#Humility is to expect nothing, to wonder at nothing that is done to me, to feel nothing done against me

I am on Day Three of #WithChristintheSchoolofPrayer by #AndrewMurray. We are encouraged to pray in secret, because the Father who is Spirit, sees what we do in secret and rewards us openly.
I have a confession to make. The things I do in secret are shameful things, things I'd be ashamed if made to divulge here.
The option #Jesus is giving us is instead of to sin in secret, to pray in secret. I don't think it translates to sin in public lol but I am willing to try praying in #secret.

Continuing my reading of #WithChristintheSchoolofPrayer by #AndrewMurray, I am on Day Two of this 31-Day Study on #prayer.
Jesus tells us in John 4 that #God is #Spirit. We must worship God in spirit and truth. To worship God, I must pray in the Holy Spirit and in Jesus, who is the #Truth. This is complete reliance on the Triune how to pray.
To put this into practice in prayer, I became silent and asked the Holy Spirit, "What do you want me to pray about? Who do you want me to pray for?"

Continuing my reading of #WithChristintheSchoolofPrayer by #AndrewMurray, I am on Day Two of this 31-Day Study on #prayer.
On Day 1, I was invited to humble myself before God and ask, "Lord, teach me how to #pray."
On Day 2, I am reminded that #God is #Spirit. We must worship God in spirit and truth. To worship God, I must pray in the Holy Spirit, and since Jesus is the #truth, to pray in Him, too. This is complete reliance on the Triune how to pray.

"Only when the church gives herself up to this holy work of #intercession can she expect the power of #Christ to manifest itself on her behalf."
"There is none who can #pray like #Jesus and none who can teach like Him."
Lord, teach us to pray..."to the glory of God, in full surrender to His will, in full assurance of #faith, in the name of Jesus, and with a #perseverance that refuses to be denied."
"The Holy Spirit is the #Spirit of prayer praying through us."

Humility is to be at rest when nobody praises me & when I am blamed or despised
