SECTION 5: Pray for love of
God
|
"In the highest prayer, men pray only for the
love of God, not because they fear Him or hell, or hope for bounty
or heaven. . .When a man falls in love with a human being, it is
impossible for him to keep from mentioning the name of his beloved.
How much more difficult to keep from mentioning the Name of God when
one has come to love Him. . .The spiritual man finds no delight in
anything save in commemoration of God."
"If one friend loves another, is it not
natural that he should wish to say so? Though he knows that that
friend is aware of his love, does he still not wish to tell him of
it?. . .It is true that God knows the wishes of all hearts; but the
impulse to pray is a natural one, springing from man's love to
God."
