Private Prayer: The Spiritual Discipline Most Needed

Private prayer should be practiced by every Christian;Long periods of Bible meditation will purify our gaze and direct it; Church attendance will enlarge our outlook and increase our love for others; Service and work and activity — all are good and should be engaged in by every Christian.
But at the bottom of all these things, giving meaning to them, will be the inward habit of beholding God. A new set of eyes (so to speak) will develop within us, enabling us to be looking at God while our outward eyes are seeing the scenes of this passing world.

–A. W. Tozer
