I bow my knees before

Not usually a rebel, but have been forwarding this blog article to a number of folks in the flock. Not trying to foment a revolution; just found the thoughts expressed in the article interesting to discuss. Now, there is much to dislike in the article, including a defensiveness and rationalization for not spending much time on the knees (although the author attempts to stress the importance of prayer as a concept).

However, the railing against the modern concepts of prayer, including the terminology and the scheduled events, strikes my heart as something full of truth. Prayer is in fact the most important of the spiritual disciplines, and is in fact the most powerful weapon we have against liar and the forces of darkness. It should come as no surprise that there exists much confusion as to what prayer is or is not.

I'll give you a big hint as to how you can tell the difference between is and is not: from you? Is not. From the Lord? Is.
