Lailah Gifty AkitaWhat a delight to desire to pray?
About This Quote
I love the way it feels to want to pray. The desire to pray, though not necessary, is very moving. It feels good to feel that I want something I can’t have, but that would be wonderful to have. There’s nothing like prayer when it comes.
I want to pray for you and your family, because it’s important to me to think of you and your needs. When others ask me how I’m doing I always say, “I’m praying for you.”
