“Prayer in all its forms — adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and petition — reorients your view and vision of everything. Prayer brings new perspective because it puts God back into the picture. Merely addressing God verbally about our needs, fears, hopes, concerns, questions, perplexities, and sins almost immediately forces us to think differently about them. . . . [Prayer] shows the big picture, gets you out of the weeds, reorients you to where you really are. ” — Tim Keller, “Prayer,” 129 Prayer Makes Us See July 27, 2015 by Jonathan Parnell in Real Life
