"All praise and glory go to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

GENTLE AND HUMBLE HEART


Do you realize that I am here speaking no longer about prayer alone but about ministry as well? The discipline to lead all our people with their struggles into the gentle and humble heart of our God is the discipline of prayer as well as the discipline of ministry.

 As long as ministry only means that we worry a lot about people and their problems. And as long as ministry means an endless amount of activities which we can hardly coordinate, we are still very much dependent on our own narrow and anxious heart. 

But when our worries are led to the heart of God and have become prayer there, then ministry and prayer become two manifestations of the same all-embracing love of God.
