Excerpt from The Place of Prayer in the Christian Religion The instinct to pray is ineradicable. Men every where pray. They pray before they are taught. They pray because they must. They can no more help praying than they can help breathing. They often pray blindly and uncertainly, but they keep on praying. The way in which they pray indicates the measure of their religious development. In deed, a history of prayer would be a history of the religious life of mankind. In Christianity prayer has reached its highest water mark. The amazed onlookers who said Of the earlier followers Of Jesus, Behold how these Christians love, might with equal propriety have said, Behold how these Christians pray. NO other worshipers ever prayed after such a fashion. They may have prayed as earnestly, but not as understandingly; they may have gained as great a nearness to God in prayer, but not as comforting a Vision of his presence; they may have taken as firm a grip Upon God, but could not have possessed as Clear a sense Of the ground of their Overcoming faith. To Christian prayer belongs something of the fullness, the largeness, and the richness which belong to the Christian life Of which it is a part.
