“Prayerful thoughts of God are never a burden”
by A. W. Tozer   
March 2nd, 2019

The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James 5:15

It is hardly possible to overstress the importance of unceasing inward prayer on the part of the one who would live the God conscious life. Prayer at stated times is good and right; we will never outgrow our need of it while we remain on earth. But this kind of prayer must be supported and perfected by the habit of consant, unspoken prayer!

But someone may question whether in a world like this it is possible to think of God constantly. Would it not be too great a burden to try to keep God constantly in the focus of our minds while carrying on our normal activities in this noisy and highly complex civilization?

Malava; had the answer to this: The wings of the dove do not weigh it down," he said; "they carry and support it. And so the thought of God is never a burden; it is a gentle breeze which bears us up, a hand which supports us and raises us, a light which guides us, and a spirit which vivifies us though we do not feel its working."

We all know how the presence of someone we deeply love lifts our spirits and suffuses us with a radiant sense of peace and well-being. So the one who loves God supremely is lifted into rapture by His conscious Presence!

"Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord."
