2:1 [prayer]

two thoughts:
“The inner life is always a life for others.” -Henri Nouwen
“Jesus taught us how to be in prayer what we are in life and how to be in life what we are in prayer.” -Dallas Willard

one point:
Just as we are able to build relationships with people through physical proximity, we are able to build relationships through prayer or an ‘inner life’. As physical proximity is to our flesh, so prayer is to our spirit - by and through the Spirit of Jesus.

Our proclamation of citizenship to the Kingdom of God enables us and empowers us to build relationships and community that the world around has never seen before.

Pray for others through words, but more than that, visualize them. Ask God to place yourself in their life in the Spirit and see how this ‘inner life’ will not only be your prayer for that person, but your life with that person and the community you build together.
